  • The Nation State and Modern Sport
    TIF - The Nation State and Modern Sport MUKUL KESAVAN August 6, 2021 Follow the flag: A sea of Indian flags at the at the Melbourne Cricket Ground during the 2015 World Cup. | Wikimedia 'National feeling is not something that has been injected into sport by swaggering players, corrupt politicians, and a scheming media looking to boost ratings; it is native to modern sport, something that is built into its historical evolution.' I think I began to think about sport and nationalism a couple of years ago, when the Indian cricket team decided to take the field wearing specially commissioned military fatigue caps. This was Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s idea and Virat Kohli, who was captain by then, supported it enthusiastically. The gesture was made in solidarity with the soldiers who had lost their lives at Pulwama. The team donated a substantial sum of money for the welfare of the soldiers’ bereaved families. Dhoni is keen on the military. He is a colonel in the Territorial Army. In the 2019 World Cup, he had to be asked by the International Cricket Council (ICC) to remove regimental insignia from his wicket keeping gloves. In that camouflage-cap match, Dhoni and the Indian team literally embodied George Orwell’s famous description of international sport: "War minus the shooting." Orwell’s phrase has been used so often and so widely that it has become detached from its historical context. It Page 1 www.TheIndiaForum.in August 6, 2021 was prompted by his growing recognition of the political symbolism of sport, as a highly visible tool of nationalism.
