I THINK FROM 1975 INDIA BECOME WORLD CHAMPION.BUT AFTER 1980 CHANGING PERIOD OF HOCKEY STARTS WHERE AUSTRALIA,NEITHERLAND,SPAIN,GERMANY,NEW ZEALAND,JAPAN EASILY TAKEN HERE INDIAN TEAM HAS PROBLEM.IN WORLD CUP,CHAMPIONS TROPHY,OLYMPICS EVERY TIME BOYS ARE FLOPPED FROM 1980 TO TILL DATE.IN COMMONWEALTH ONLY AUSTRALIA IS BEST BUT HERE INDIA LOST BY 9-0
dont underestimate boys.If you see beljium is terrific attacking power then india.From last 16 minutes they scored 3 goals against 1 goal of india.Ending pressure is very big problem of india from decades.
a great hockey player of australia in today hockey.He performed brilliant against paki match.Indian team due to their internal administration and performance failed to qualify champions trophy 2012.Pakistan federation is better then indian hockey federation.Hope we qualify in olympics.Now matter is not gold,silver,braunze firstly qualify in olympics.In 2008 beijing olympics hockey india cannot qualify.

India cannot qualify in this tournament due to internal politics war of IOA,IHF,FIH.So firstly champions trophy held in india but after dispute cannot end then shifted to auckland new zealand.
