Hockey Match

Hi friends,

You all must have watched the hockey match on Sunday between India and Pakistan. I must say it was simply an awesome match and such a win on an auspicious day of HOLI made it more special.

Now it seems that may be hockey will get its worth back. This world cup may change the face of everyone's criterion of looking at this sport. Even being our national game it has suffered a lot and the international game cricket has gained much more than anything. It is not that cricket is not important but still I feel it gets much undue advantages. And this time even cricketers were advertising for Hockey. Now that is something appreciable.

May be if the fate of our national game hockey changes from this world cup, then there will be chances of other Indian sports also start getting their due but still it will take a long time. This is possible only by the initiative of the sports ministry and of course sponsers from all over. Because awareness can be brought through advertisement which can attract spectators easily as in case of hockey now, the first match had a big audience and I think a big credit goes to the sponsors of the sport who promoted it in such a way that almost everyone wanted to be a part of it.

Well, the revolution being started must continue now.
