The Australian T20 series victory over Scotland was filled with hilarious moments, but not just because of their brilliant performance. The win has brought Australia back to their form. But the players were shocked to see the trophy after the win which had something that looked like an “ice cream cup” or as some of them jokingly called it, “a kadhaii”.
Marsh himself could not hide his joy and held the cup with a mix of confusion and humor. The players gathered for the team photo, not knowing how to pose with the small, unconventional trophy, which led to more laughter. Not knowing the historical significance of the quaich, the Australian players took the surprise in stride and passed the cup to each other for fun.
The trophy given to the Australian captain was like a miniature cup; it was much smaller in size than the normal cups. Marsh and his teammates couldn’t stop laughing after they saw the trophy. The cup given to the Australian cricket team upon winning the trophy resembled a “quaich”, a traditional Scottish drinking cup that symbolizes friendship, hospitality, and peace.
Australia put up a stunning batting performance against Scotland in the first T20 match by scoring 113 runs for the loss of just one wicket in the powerplay. After the series, Marsh stated, “I got many opportunities with this young team. The players performed well in different circumstances and played good all-round cricket, it was good to see.”
This win was a big achievement for the Australian team, but the trophy made this victory memorable and full of laughter. Fans on social media made many funny memes about the strange design of this trophy. Some fans jokingly compared the trophy to ice cream cups and tea cups.
