New Delhi: When election is in the air and IPL is underway, how can cricket be far away from politics?

Drawing a direct analogy between cricket and politics, Union Defence Minister Rajnath Singh described Rahul Gandhi as the ‘best finisher’, just like MS Dhoni.

“I sometimes wonder why this is happening (to Congress)… and I reach this conclusion. Who is the best finisher in cricket? (After the crowd prompts) Dhoni. If anyone asks me who is the best finisher in Indian politics, I will say it is Rahul Gandhi. This is the reason why several leaders have left Congress,” the senior BJP leader said while addressing an election rally in Madhya Pradesh’s Sidhi district.

Rajnath had said at an earlier rally that Rahul won’t stop until he “finished” the Congress.

Attacking Congress party for having “unbreakable” relationship with corruption, Rajnath said: “Congress and corruption are inextricably linked. Most Congress governments faced corruption allegations, but no such allegations have been made against any minister in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government.”
