Is This Cup Half Full?

Teatime Declarations is a new series that explores cricket through the lens of geopolitics. Episode 3, Is This Cup Half Full, comes during the 2023 Cricket World Cup but takes us back several decades and asks two questions: did India's win in 1983 turn cricket into a religion in India? And did Pakistan's win in 1992 make Imran Khan's subsequent emergence as populist Prime Minister of Pakistan inevitable?
