When it comes to first dates, individuals who meet each other through a match-making process in India discuss a lot of sports after the conversations on family, a survey has revealed.

According to Banihal, a neuroscience-based recommendation engine for finding the perfect life partner, 21 percent Indian men talk about sports during their first date with a prospective match after family, which still dominates the conversation.

Using a precise algorithm to ensure matrimonial success, Banihal also came up with the fact that while for women, family still comes the first with 70 percent of them talking about it on their first meeting, only 44 percent men discuss the topic.

As per the study, 14 percent of women love to talk about sports during their first meeting.
