A social media user on X has announced that he submitted an application to be the head coach of Team India. His statement coincides with the BCCI's (the Indian cricket board) efforts to find Rahul Dravid's replacement.
When word spread that the BCCI had made a Google Form available to prospective applicants, many Indian cricket fans responded. Some people found it offensive that a Google Form was used to request applications for a position with such high visibility. Memes and ironic remarks were the reactions of some others.
The user's response to the BCCI's request for applications via Google Forms appears to fall under the second group: cynicism. He does, however, go into great detail to explain his "cricketing credentials."
I used to play gully cricket while I was in school. The balls I bowled were unplayable because they never made it to the stumps at the end of the batsman's innings. I was also a fashionable batsman. Very fashionable, in other words. The user said, "The works, you see: sun hat, shades, chewing gum, sunscreen, red kerchief sticking out of my trouser pocket."
