The craze for cricket is not a new thing in India; we have been witnessing it for decades. Indians go to extreme lengths for their love for this bat and ball game. Cricket and tea are probably two of the best things given to us by the British. The whole country comes alive when the match is between India and Pakistan. The rivalry between India and Pakistan reaches its peak during these matches, and people are emotionally charged.
A recent incident illustrates just how far someone can go for their love of cricket.
