Trailer of SULTAN

Some man's loss is another man's gain. It may be corruption for you, but for MC Mary Kom supporters it is neat and clean process. You don't confine yourself to Haryana only. There is corruption, because a Haryanvi Pinki Jangda couldn't go to the world championships but there is no neat and clean process if another Haryanvi Sonia Lather won silver there. There is corruption because Sushil Kumar is being denied a trial, but there is no neat and clean process if he was given a chance to win medals in Olympics twice. It is a biased mindset.
As far as Indian cricket team is concerned, India is among strong cricketing nations, 2 time ODI world champions, 1 time T20 world champions, 2 time ICC champions trophy winner. Only world titles matter most. In current players Virat Kohli and MS Dhoni are really world class. Best in world.

Are bhai, there is no clear process. Also politics, regionalism etc play a big part of decision making. Countries like US hold trials between several good players to select the best, no matter who won the quota for the country. In our country sports organisations run by politicians etc who have vested interests. On top of that poor infrastructure, lack of good training and coaching, poor diet practices etc add further obstructions. Even when we talk about most popular sports in India(Cricket), training and infrastructure is still an issue. Not many stadiums, training facilities available for such a huge population. Yes India has produced really good players but overall India's cricket performance abroad has been abysmal. India never dominated like Australia or West Indies. India knows the problem of bouncy tracks but still very less work on weakness. India did not produce reputable fast bowlers either, which again boils down to physique and available infrastructure.

Overall India lacks a lot in terms of Infrastructure, good training, good access to facilities, high nutrition diet etc. Red tape and too much bureaucracy,lack of funding, politics, lack of professionalism in the sports organisations etc are the major bottlenecks. Yes sports culture also matter but that said, India needs to do a lot in the above said areas.

[/B]This guy Hamish McDonald is just venting out his frustration about India. Someone should ask him why USA, Russia, China, Japan, Australia like sports powerhouses are zero in football? Why their US$ billions of billions don't work in this most popular game of the globe and why a India type country Brazil is so good in this game? Gripped with malnutrition, starvation and poverty world champion African athletes may also be cited here.

Lets forget Hamish McDonald. What about so many Indians who have done research around the issues gripping India. All those people are fool according to you? Just sports culture will do according to you? Kushti is played in India for centuries but why not India is at top of the medal tally? Money brings infrastructure my friend. You gave example of Africa, again how many medals they win overall? So according to you, all sports in which USA or China win medals are the most popular games in those countries? Come on yaar, come out of this culture phobia and think holistically and rationally.

I think both culture and infrastructure plays a vital role to stand a country out. But major role is of infrastructure. Let us take the example of china, just check the medals tally of China in Olympics. they were nothing a few decades back and today they are one of the best in world. China gov emphasized furiously on sports...they spent lot of money on sports...children were trained days and nights for years....and they emerged giant even in the sports they were nothing. A country can not be a great power in the world until it wonders in sport.

Apart from infrastructure and culture I think we need to change the mentality of people.

Doctor/Engineer can still earn bread and butter being a mediocre but same is not true for a sportsman. Govt welfare system is very weak to support anyone to survive in this expensive world.

A thread which was originally started to review an upcoming movie's trailer, is now heading towards the most debated issues of the nation like: recent wrestling trial controversy and the condition of sports in India.
Moderator don't you think such serious issues should be discussed in another dedicated thread? Just a suggestion. The title of current thread doesn't justify the issues being discussed here.
