Title in ENGLISH : The book traces the exhilarating journey of the biggest sporting contest through time immemorial-from its genesis to its more recent glories-with;tales of grit, spirit and heroics in every turn of its long-trodden path. Far from listing out the number-heavy statistics, this book aims at digging up the narratives that became eternal subtexts in this phenomenal journey, where a game became a political statement, prides got tamed, revenge proved sweet and humiliation often cherished.
