Here's what people searched on Google 2021 this year!

Year 2021 in a spin!

If the year 2020 was distinguished by a surge in people anxiously Googling everything related to the coronavirus, this year saw a return in online searches around the world for old standards of sports, entertainment, bitcoin and memes.

2021 Year in Google Search!

On Wednesday, Google issued its annual “Year in Search” list, which gives a look at the top trending search phrases that showed an increase in traffic over the previous year, both internationally and by country and category.

Coronavirus vs sports

Last year, the term “coronavirus” topped the global trending search list and dominated much of the US list. The top trending global searches this year were more sports-related.

The top two trending global searches for the year were for the Men’s World Cup cricket match between Australia and India, as well as India’s match versus England in the same event, possibly reflecting the expanding global influence of India’s hundreds of millions of internet users. The T20 Cricket World Cup and the Indian Premier League cricket competition — both of which were stopped in May because of Covid-19 — were also among the top 10 globally trending search terms.

Because cricket has been the most talked-about topic in Pakistan this year, aggressive batter Asif Ali and left-handed batsman Fakhar Zaman came in second and third, respectively, on the search engine’s top Athletes list.

Top searched Pakistani athletes,

Shoaib Malik
Asif Ali
Fakhar Zaman
Shaheen Afridi
Hasan Ali
Mohammad Rizwan
Shadab Khan
Abid Ali
Danish Aziz
Haris Rauf
