IITian Baba’s Prediction For The India-Pakistan Match: The whole country rejoiced as India defeated Pakistan in the 2025 Champions Trophy. Virat Kohli became the match’s hero as supporters flocked to social media to applaud the Men in Blue, his incredible century setting the stage for an easy victory. However, among the applause, another name began to gain attention on the internet: Abhay Singh, the former aerospace engineer who became a sadhu and is known as “IITian Baba.”
The self-styled forecaster had boldly said on a webcast before to the game that India had no chance of winning. He insisted that his statements would stand, even challenging Virat Kohli and the squad to disprove him. However, his prognosis failed as India trounced Pakistan, and the internet quickly made him a meme phenomenon.
He was mercilessly harassed by internet users, who referred to him as a scammer and urged podcast producers to cease inviting him. His forecasts were even cursed, according to some jokes. Prafull Billore, founder of MBA Chai Wala, joined in the fun by humorously declaring that he was relinquishing his title of “panauti” (bad luck) and proposing that IITian Baba take it in his stead.
The viral sadhu eventually spoke out after feeling the fire. He apologized on X and included images of Team India and Virat Kohli having a good time.
“I want to apologize in public and invite everyone to celebrate—it’s time for a celebration. “Pata tha ki India jetega mujhe man hi man.”
