Mumbai Police uses Wimbledon's 'stretched final' and the 102 over-long Cricket World Cup final to send a message, netizens applaud the irony

Sports fans had a nerve-wracking Sunday with the Wimbledon-winner Novak Djokovic having his task stretched by tennis legend Roger Federer and the Cricket World Cup Final stretching to a super over-tie and a controversial result crowning hosts England champions finally. But Mumbai police's Twitter handle, at its creative best, seems to have found gems in these intense sports moments on Monday.

Expressing its dedication to the 'maximum city', Mumbai police has tweeted  a picture of 2019 Wimbledon Champion Novak Djokovic stretching to his limit in an attempt to return opponent  Roger Federer's volley, captioning 'Mumbai, we'll always be your safety net!'

The law enforcement department also took inspiration from the Cricket World Cup (CWC)'s nail-biting finish where 100 overs were not enough to crown the world champion to tweet 'Playing 100 overs may not be enough to decide a match, but dialing 100 may be enough to find our catch!'
