Mr. Gill has long outlived his usefulness to Hockey, if not to the nation. If he will quit, as he claims, only when Indian Hockey does well again, wouldn't that actually act as a disincentive for him to improve the game? After all, wouldn't he be writing his own recognition letter by improving the game? He would therefore be more inclined to maintain status quo so that he can continue to claim "I'll leave as soon as Indian hockey turns the corner".........a very diabolical sentiment indeed!

No,that's not true All endorsements of Yuvraj Singh had stopped,when he was in bad form and out of the team,long back. Mohammed Kaif,Parthiv Patel were out of the team and their endorsements have stopped Only a performer earns well in Indian cricket. Of course BCCI has a contract system and they can afford it because of sponsors The crux of the matter is that if people take interest in playing and watching hockey, sponsors will come and the hockey board and the players will become richer

there is already a league called Premier Hockey league. It definitely does not so much money as IPL. But it is a good tournament for hockey players.
