You don't get attention like cricket... you don't get basic privileges that are given to players in other countries... you don't get proper compensation... and worst of all you didn't even have proper shoes to play the matches... YET you proved your gritt and mettle by winning the championship. Even now, the TV channels are busy showing cricket updates on every ball and what happening on ground zero in USA.

Hi Ankit...
Are someone preventing us from looking beyond cricket. Some good games from the hockey team will automatically bring the focus back to them. Hope the winning streak of the hockey team continues.
It sounds baseless for me whenever people blame cricket for the fall of other games.
heartily congratulation to indian hockey team.... indians have hell of talent but always got neglected.... i'm huge fan of cricket but always felt bad for other sportsman who does well and doesn't get appreciated.... i think we should promote other games also just like we did to cricket....
This victory is a good slap on the face of the authorities that are ruining Indian Hockey for political reasons. This victory couldn't have come at a better time, especially when due to internal politics, champions trophy has been taken away from India.
