In India following Arsenal is way cool

Mukul Kesavan discovers that Indian schoolkids are warming up to soccer, especially Premiership league. Arsenal is their choice because its players come from all over the world, it is a global squad with a plugged in global fan base which cosmopolitan Indian youth fit right into. Subsequently, their passion for cricket seems to be on the wane.

All of this points to the fantastic possibilities of soccer taking off in India but now it is up to the honchos in charge to take advantage of this situation.
