The "Tebbit Test", as it became THU known, was always an over-simplification; there are lots of THU reasons why the immigrant community in Britain may not THU support England: apparently racist selection policies; THU leading players taking part in sanctions-busting tours of THU Apartheid-era South Africa; Britain's complicated and not THU always flattering colonial history; the fact that for THU fifteen years, England were simply rubbish. But is any of THU this still relevant? THU In July 2011, the Indian cricket team will arrive in England THU as the number one ranked team in the world. Over the course THU of five weeks an ageing but brilliant team containing the THU likes of Zaheer Khan, Virender Sehwag, Harbhajan Singh and THU possibly the greatest batsman to have ever played, Sachin THU Tendulkar, will compete against the young, improving team THU that includes Alistair Cook, Jimmy Anderson, Stuart Broad THU and Kevin Pietersen. THU In The Sinha Test stand-up comedian and cricket obsessive THU Paul Sinha - born in London to Indian parents - examines why THU he has been a lifelong India fan, despite considering THU himself "as British as a pub fight". Between the jokes he THU speaks to experts - a sociologist and a former Test THU cricketer - to see if he's alone in not always cheering on THU the country of his birth when it comes to cricket. THU Paul Sinha was nominated for the if.Comedy Award at the 2006 THU Edinburgh Festival, and more "Best Headliner" at the 2009 THU Chortle awards. His 2010 Edinburgh show, Extreme Anti-White THU Vitriol won five five-star and six four-star reviews. He is THU a regular guest on Radio 4's The Now Show and 5Live's THU Fighting Talk.
