  1. Harsh Raj Singh

    Enjoyed the cricket anecdotes, but the socio-political commentary felt a little heavy-handed at times. A decent read for those interested in Indian history.

  2. Bhavya Dhanda

    Cricket and politics intertwined! This book really opened my eyes to modern India’s complexities. Absolutely worth the time.

  3. Nitishree Bhansali

    I loved the personal touch Magazine brought to the narrative. A well-written account of India’s journey. I learned a lot!

  4. Priyanshu Prem

    Magazine’s writing style is engaging. The behind-the-scenes look at cricket governance was particularly interesting. Highly recommended!

  5. Dimple Grover

    A fascinating journey through India, seen through cricket and beyond. Magazine’s personal stories add depth. Some parts felt a bit slow. Overall, a good read.

  6. Sanchit Chaudhary

    Interesting to get this insight from a reporter’s perspective. I did feel that some chapters were a little slow. Otherwise it was great.

  7. Sarvesh Sharma

    A mixed bag. The cricket stories are great, but some of the political analysis felt biased. Still worth reading for the cricket content.

  8. Kanishk Khandelwal

    A blend of sports and politics delivered! Pradeep Magazine’s narrative is captivating, providing an enriching journey through India’s modern history.

  9. Harsh Yadav

    Good read! I would recommend this to any cricket fan with an interest in the history of modern India. I would have liked a little more cricket.

  10. Aparna Anjali

    The book offered a unique perspective. Sometimes hard to follow all the names. A worthwhile read, nonetheless.

  11. Megha Aswani

    I found the earlier chapters more compelling than the later ones. Good insight into cricket’s influence, but not consistently engaging.

  12. Uttkarsh Aggarwal

    Enjoyable and informative. A few editing errors but otherwise a very good book. It is an interesting blend of cricket and politics.
