Cricket to politics, a nation in awe of idols ...Middle East

Nearly two decades ago, a prominent Hindi news channel showcased a flagship cricket show provocatively titled, “Match Ka Mujrim” (Criminal of the Match). The aim in a rather perverse way was to identify the “villain” of the day, the player who had let the team down. A TV studio became a gladiatorial ring, a cricket-crazy crowd was transformed into a lynch mob, and lines between fandom and tamasha were blurred. Years later, the frenzied blame game continues as enraged reactions to India’s defeat in the World Cup final have proven. It would almost seem as if most Indian sports watchers don’t know how to handle defeat with grace. PREMIUM India’s Virat Kohli celebrates his 50th ODI century
