England has declared a period of national mourning after India's win at the World Cup, sending shockwaves throughout the country. The announcement was met with confusion and disbelief, as England had not even made it to the finals.
The Prime Minister's office released a statement saying, "The people of England are in a state of grief after the loss at the World Cup. We request privacy and respect during this difficult time." The statement was met with ridicule and mockery from around the world, with many accusing England of being sore losers.
An anonymous source from within the England camp revealed that the team was completely devastated after India's victory. "They've been inconsolable since the match ended. They just couldn't fathom the fact that they weren't the ones holding the trophy at the end of it all."
It is said that England's reaction to India's win was due to their inability to accept defeat gracefully. Experts predict that England's morale will take some time to recover from this crushing blow.
Meanwhile, India is basking in the glory of their victory, with celebrations taking place across the country. Fans are ecstatic and proud, and the team is being hailed as heroes.
The contrast between the reactions of England and India has not gone unnoticed, with many commenting on the stark difference in attitudes. "It's just sad to see England react in this way," said one commentator. "It's a game, after all. You win some, you lose some. It's important to be gracious in both victory and defeat."
Others took the opportunity to make fun of England's overreaction, with memes and jokes flooding social media. One meme showed a picture of the England team with the caption, "I'm not saying England lost because they're sore losers, but they did declare a period of national mourning after India's win."
Despite the mockery, England remains steadfast in its decision to mourn the loss. It is yet to be seen how long the period of mourning will last and whether England will be able to bounce back from its defeat at the World Cup. Only time will tell.
