Claim 3: “Urvil Patel turned INR 1 crore into INR 119 crore in just 23 balls”
MISLEADING
The claim uses financial terminology ('INR 1 crore into INR 119 crore') to describe a cricket score. Evidence shows Urvil Patel scored 119 runs (not 119 crore rupees) off 37 balls (not 23). The 'profit machine' phrasing in the news source is a metaphor for his scoring rate, not a financial investment.
