10 reviews for Democracy’s XI: The Great Indian Cricket Story

  1. Dipra Halder –

    Interesting concept, but the writing style wasn’t always engaging. Some of the connections felt a bit forced, still learned a lot about cricket history.

  2. Sagar Gupta –

    Loved the stories about the cricketers! It gave a good glimpse on how cricket reflects Indian society. A must-read for cricket lovers!

  3. Parishee Wadhwani –

    Felt disconnected at times. The writing was mediocre. Not sure what the hype is about. Expected a lot more from this book. Disappointed.

  4. Yashika Khandait –

    An entertaining and informative book. Sardesai’s passion for cricket shines through. Occasionally repetitive, but overall a great read.

  5. Vishu Chauhan –

    Engrossing from start to finish! Sardesai weaves together cricket and politics seamlessly. A thought-provoking and enjoyable read.

  6. Riya Negi –

    A brilliant exploration of India through the lens of cricket. The book is well-written and full of interesting details. Highly recommend!

  7. Annanya Tyagi –

    A good attempt to link cricket and democracy. However, the book lacks depth. Worth reading for cricket fans, but not a groundbreaking work.

  8. Harshit Jain –

    I was expecting more political analysis. While the cricket stories were good, the connection to democracy felt superficial at times.

  9. Keshav R Gupta –

    A fascinating read connecting cricket and Indian democracy. Sardesai’s profiles are insightful, though some chapters felt rushed. Enjoyed the anecdotes!

  10. Arshit Singh –

    Enjoyed learning about the players and their impact. A bit too much focus on well-known figures. Would have loved more on lesser-known cricketers.
