India market focus and heavy on cricket and sports

Some good tidbits and catchphrases, but heavily focused on market and society in India. It was good to learn more about Indian culture, but far too many cricket examples which were very drawn out. I listened at 1.5x speed and this was still too long. Maybe it could have been better organized and had an appendex of examples. This would probably appeal to a newer or middle manager in India who loves cricket. US executives should pass.
