New Delhi: Pizza chain Domino’s offered free garlic bread on every wicket taken by team India during the T20 World Cup semi-final in which England crushed India by 10 wickets.
The offer by pizza chain Domino’s made fans even more upset amid all the memes on India’s loss. In what appears to be a mobile phone notification sent during the match, the pizza company’s offer read, “Har wicket pe free garlic bread.”
As per the image, the customers could use “FREEGB” to avail a free garlic bread with their orders for every wicket taken by the Men in Blue.

“What a scam,” commented a Twitter user. Another person wrote, “I’m confused!!! Marketing or Sarcasm.”
Other brands also trolled team India for losing against England. Myntra, India’s biggest online fashion brand shared an image of what they called KL Rahul’s tshirt. “Out of this world,” read the T-shirt. This came in as KL Rahul scored 5 runs in 5 balls and got out in the second over. Many fans, however, did not like this mocking of an India player and came forward in his support.

Oh, c’mon Myntra, expected better from you. Do brands need to behave like trolls too? pic.twitter.com/RgdgL7l17i
