After India wining1983 worldcup more audience were attracted towards crickets, from these on cricket become popular sport in India. If other sportsman would have won more international titles in games such as football, tennis and other, those sports would have been popular in India.

Cricket is religion in India. Money glamour and then wide coverage by media make it more attractive and lucrative. Introduction of t20 matches also increased interest in this game. It is not detrimental to other sports instead other sports should be given proper coverage and fund.

Hi.
I would say that the fame to the game cricket has made a bad impact on other sports. Too much attention and money is spent on this sport that the players engage in spot fixing. If too much attention was given to the sport then such embarrassing things wouldn't have happened.

In my point of view, money is playing a major in cricket.
That's why most youngsters are attracted to cricket along with their parents. Eventually, we want a secure life whether we study or sports but nowadays in cricket, money is a lot so cricket is Higher than other sports.

In my opinion, Nowadays cricket is a very popular sport in the world. So many people love this game.
Comparing, other sports rather than cricket. Cricket is the most valuable sport. One point I added it these are mentally and physically very comfortable for other sports.

Never, it is just a sport. If you like it, enjoy it, else do not watch it but don't say such unfavorable sentences which destroys the spirit of the game. It's just because people like it more than any other sport, the game has gained popularity.

Hello everybody.
As you all said cricket is creating obsession to other sports. I also think that you are right. Our national game is HOCKEY but It is being ignored by government. It is also not provided with appropriate sports facilities.
