What If the British Never Ruled India? 🇮🇳

What if the British never ruled India? It almost didn't happen. At Plassey in 1757, about 3,000 Company troops beat 50,000 — because it rained, their gunpowder stayed dry, and the Nawab's own general was bribed to stand still. Flip that, and the Marathas, Sikhs, Mysore, Hyderabad and Bengal stay free: a subcontinent of rival kingdoms, more like Europe. No railways built for London, no English everywhere… and no cricket.
