Cricket and Politics - One MMS record that Modi will find tough to break

Politics is debatably the most debated subject in India- however, next only to cricket. The two have been so inseparably entwined forever that you could have walked into a BCCI meeting any time in the past 30 years, and no one would have faulted you if you mistook it for a party meeting.

One sinister mind embarked on the project to link these two in a rather devious way. The extensive study went on to discover who India's most successful PM has been, and the results are bound to surprise you.

*These are Test match records

Not a single game won under the British. Out go the British, and India win the “Tryst with Destiny” finally. All in all, Manmohan Singh's tenure was most successful. The Queen's governor generals were hopeless as well as the early prime ministers, but Charan Singh deserves a special mention for not losing a single game.

HMS- Her/His Majesty's service, INC- Indian National Congress, BJP- Bharatiya Janata Party, JD- Janta Dal, JP- Janta Party, JP (S)- Janta Party (Secular)
