India is one of the most-cricket crazy nations in the world. There is almost no place in India, where cricket can’t be a conversation starter. The recent proposal of acquisition of Ten Sports by Sony India for such a huge valuation is also owing to this same reason. In fact, viewership for several of the bi-lateral series involving India has crossed the viewership of the cricket’s oldest rivalry, The Ashes.
