How India sees it strategically?

Leverage sport’s popularity to signal intent, assert dominance & fuel/ease tensions.

Key instances below 👇🏼 Image
1. 1987 Jaipur Test (Zia-ul-Haq’s Visit)

2. 1999 Tour Post-Kargil Promise

Bilateral series after Pak’s 1998 nuclear tests.

India projected openness to engagement despite strained ties.

Sadly, Kargil war followed exposing faults in cricket as a diplomatic tool
