I fell this figure is running out. Because. As we see that in recent completed commonwealth games play. Its overall great display from all our athletes. As they brought lot of laurels to the country by achieving various top positions as in their respective categories. As we can see a poll of young talents emerging from that sports extravaganza. Other than cricket. As we started to hear a lot about saina nehwal, leander paes, somedev, sania, and lot of others. They are not part of the cricket. But still they could reach out to of million Indian hearts. Through their matured performance.

So I think the scenario here is changing. As because of the talents emerging from every other sport.

Hi everyone,

I feel that its a bit of overstatement that, cricket as a national obsession is a detriment to other sports.

We support many other games like tennis, badminton, shooting, etc. These games also have their own sheen and fame. We have sports stars like Sania Mirza, Saina Nehwal, Bopppana, Mahesh Bhupati, Leander Paes, Rajwardhan Singh Rathore, Abhinav Bindra other than our cricketers.

So many sports are also popular in India other than cricket also.
