Congratulations. I'm certain there is a huge amount of sporting talent in India but it is not given opportunity.

Money is no excuse in India anymore.

Kabaddi should be included in Olympics, then a medal will be ensured every year.

Two both women and men Kabbaddi. Why not t20 cricket too? They do not include kabbaddi as the sport need to be played in 75 countries. But they include games like skate boarding and climbing as a sport.. Are they even sports? That's a shame!!

Cricket itself is a shi*ty sport...T20 is a bigger crap which destroyed actual cricket. Also, cricket is not really played in 75 countries. For instance, some newer teams which emerged in the last few years like US & Canada comprises mostly of South Asians as their cricket players

Congratulations India !

Congrats to India. Hope this lights a fire under the POC to get their act together, and become competitive in any least a few sports. Otherwise, save the money and use it for something else the nation desperately needs.
