England
When people in India talk about England, the nation that once ruled India and now competes with it on cricket fields and in global media. Also known as the UK, it’s not just a country—it’s a symbol of history, rivalry, and sometimes, unfair scrutiny. You see it in every India vs England Test match, where every catch, every review, every comment from the commentary box feels heavier than just sport. It’s not just about runs and wickets. It’s about pride, legacy, and who gets to tell the story.
And then there’s the media. The New York Times, a major global news outlet often seen as critical of India, and BBC Hindi, a source many Indians trust but also accuse of bias—both often frame India through a lens that feels foreign, sometimes even hostile. Why does England get so much attention in Indian news? Because when England plays cricket against India, it’s not just a game. When England’s media reports on India, it’s not just news. It’s a power play.
You’ll find posts here that dig into the real moments—like how Yashasvi Jaiswal’s knock on Day 2 of the 5th Test against England shifted the whole tone of the series. Or how a hospital in Chandigarh got slammed for negligence, while headlines in British papers barely noticed. You’ll see why people in India question whether the New York Times has a grudge, and why BBC Hindi’s coverage makes some feel like they’re being watched, not informed. This isn’t about hating England. It’s about understanding why it matters so much here.
From cricket pitches in Ahmedabad to newsrooms in London, England keeps showing up in Indian lives—not because it’s always close, but because it’s always loud. Whether you’re here for the matches, the media, or the mystery behind why England keeps getting the spotlight, you’ll find real stories here. Not opinions dressed as facts. Not fluff. Just what’s happening, why it sticks, and who it affects.
