Both India and South Africa have showcased impeccable form throughout the tournament, remaining undefeated.</p><h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Unlikely Supporter: Prafull Billore and his ‘Reverse Jinx’</h3><p>In an interesting twist to the final, Indian entrepreneur Prafull Billore, famously known as MBA Chaiwala, has become a viral sensation on social media. Despite being an Indian, Billore is humorously supporting South Africa, a trend that has caught the attention of many cricket enthusiasts.</p><p>See Also: <a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/heres-why-david-miller-is-biggest-threat-for-indian-team-in-t20-world-cup-2024-final/">Here’s why David Miller is biggest threat for Indian team in T20 World Cup 2024 Final</a></p><p>The ‘Panauti’ (bad luck) memes began circulating after Billore posted a selfie with Indian cricketer Suryakumar Yadav. Billore shared the photo on X (formerly Twitter) on June 21, and the next day, Yadav scored only six runs in a T20 match against Bangladesh. This coincidence led to playful speculation about Billore’s supposed jinx effect.</p><figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true"><p lang="und" dir="ltr">⁦<a href="https://twitter.com/surya_14kumar?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@surya_14kumar</a>⁩ ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 <a href="https://t.co/RlxM0cAC3o">pic.twitter.com/RlxM0cAC3o</a></p>— Prafull Billore (@pbillore141) <a href="https://twitter.com/pbillore141/status/1803926234126000619?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 20, 2024</a></blockquote><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div></figure><h3 class="wp-block-heading">Turning Tides: Billore’s embrace of the meme culture</h3><p>Instead of shying away from the trolling, Billore leaned into the joke.
