Sport

Being an Indian sometime helps.

You can easily switch on television and watch any sporting event happening around the globe! Be it world cup football or Euro cup, Formula 1 to world heavyweight boxing championship, Australian / US open to Wimbledon, or most grueling event on planet tour de France - all you need to have is - intrinsic passion for SPORT!

The good thing of being Indian is none of Indian player/s under individual sporting event or team's collective efforts, have reached at highest level. Hence general "assumption" would have been, Indian wont have any particular favorites... the only favorite which would remain is Sport!

But, assumption its for ages being - mother of all idiots! ;)

In a population of 1billion + nation, we have our own say... and to top it up technology was instrumental in reducing the distance.

I / many of my friends for years were/are concerned about outcome of Ashes more than anything else :D cant help! You can change a person not his/her feelings, based on same principle the rule gets applied in each and every sporting event.

Personally for me
I would like too see Fedex win Wimbledon every time.
England to win Ashes every time.
Germany to win WC 2010. Similarly, different teams / sporting individuals are preferred by different people of India.

I guess it’s more to do with love for particular nation, team, playing individuals. We more than often get close to individual we relate through subconscious! Sports in a way acts as stimulant, It certainly brings us closer!
