As whole of India celebrates the T20 world cup win, I remain silent worried more about whats happening to our national game HOCKEY. I really think its a more demanding and tactful game than cricket; T20 at least.
Our hockey team has done really well in the past but no real appreciation has gone their way. On the other hand you have millions being offered to cricketers and homes being donated by Sahara.
Recently India won the Asian cup and half the people back home dint even know there was a hockey tournament, whats more shocking is that the team entered finals defeating tough teams such as South Korea and the sports minister who was supposed to be the chief guest for the final never even appeared..What an A!@ HOLE.
This blog is dedicated to all those Unsung Heroes who really deserved all the true Appreciation. Good job; hopefully hockey gets more recognition in the future. I'm just a student yearning to rise the awareness of hockey in India, I only wish I can do something better.
