India has not been short of glory days in sports apart from cricket, the fact is that's past. We did have so many other sportsperson to salvage pride from. In last decade or two we saw Indian hockey dying a slow death. If history repeats itself Indian hockey could not repeat it's glorious past. Football too had it's presence but is never heard off.

There are two things Indians are totally and utterly crazy about - Bollywood Movies and Cricket. Right? Completely Wrong!! It's only the media and few money-makers who thinks and acts that way. I suppose the "Emotional Tadka" many not work for long. TV Channels that bought rights to beam the cricket world cup tournament 2007, India's defeat was a financial disaster. New phenomenas like Indian Premier League can only prove to be utter waste of time and resources for this growth-hungry country!
