Fans remembered Jason Roy on Twitter and brutally trolled England selectors after the team failed to perform against South Africa in World Cup 2023. Reigning champions took on South Africa on October 21, Saturday, at the iconic Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. English skipper Jos Buttler won the toss and invited their rivals to bat first. After opener Quinton de Kock’s surprising dismissal on five runs, the middle-order batting displayed brilliant skills to put a mammoth total of 399 runs on the scoreboard.

After a sensational performance with the bat, the Proteas bowlers put on another terrific performance by ball to absolutely destroy the English batting order. 

After quick fall of wickets, England fans took to Twitter to express their frustration. Not only this, but fans also didn’t hold themselves back from pointing out Jason Roy’s absence and snub from the World Cup 2023. 

England had lost eight wickets by the end of the 19th over and eventually were bundled out at the core of 170 in 22 overs.
