As per my opinion Cricket is quit more popular than Hockey Hockey was famous when legend like Major Dhayan Chand play for India. He was the best player in hockey all over the world..We respect him for his such a brilliant contribution.

But now Cricket is more popular. Even we all watch it like a religious game.

In Order to bring some pride to our nation we must keep apart our personal interest. National Game Glory will unite us for our nation. we need not to change our national game but need to change our mind set. If something is possible with Cricket then its not a magical for Hockey. Only Attitudinal change will do this magic.Its time have Nations interest first than Personal Interest and we will see glorious changes in every sector in India....finally We have 8 times world championship in Hockey...check this with Cricket!!!

field hockey has made the nation prod by its achievements over the years. Once this sport was India's most popular sport even ahead of cricket but in the last few decades hockey has not been able to prove itself but I still believe that one olympic medal this time in 2011 can change the scenario. the hockey team need to come back strongly and prove themselves. I believe that Rajpal singh and co. will certainly do well. I will appeal to all the people of india to come forward and watch hockey and save the popularity of our national sport.
