India and the United Kingdom have a history together and that has had a big effect, on India. This relationship has changed the way India does politics and it has also changed the way India plays sports, Indias cricket.

India became an independent country on 15 August 1947, after almost two centuries of British colonial rule. The independence movement was largely non-violent and was led by key figures such as Mahatma Gandhi. When India gained independence, it chose to remain part of the Commonwealth of Nations in the same year, 1947. This decision was significant because it showed India’s intention to cooperate with other former British colonies while still being a fully sovereign nation. In 1950, India became a republic, and thanks to the London Declaration of 1949, it was able to continue its membership in the Commonwealth even without recognizing the British monarch as head of state.
