People can both like soccer and dislike the british? What are Indians banned from being doctor who or rail fans now? Cricket is like the most popular international sport in India and English is the closest thing to a truly univeral language in India (most people in south India don't know Hindi). Turns out when the UK invades your country you get to keep the things they leave behind that you like lol

I would argue that the british are responsible for the modern idea of an Indian state in the first place by invading the entire thing and giving everyone there a common enemy by treating everyone living there so atrociously. India would probably be like 3 or 4 smaller countries if the british hadn't forced them to unify for better or for worse
