Indians hail and pray cricketers who sometimes win and mostly lose.

But they miss our chess champion Anand who is rated as the #1 player internationally.

Glad to hear this. Congraats Abhinav.

By the way India's lose at the cricket test at the same time will help many

& i'm not that cheap to reply in such a way.

wthell?

so you say allll those money, hype, money....... given to the cricketers was worth it?

look at that pankaj guy, he's a WC.

wth, i bet you forgot dhanraj pillai.

20-20 = time pass cricket. it shouldnt have been celebrated as such,
its ok if you celebrate, but dont forget the other ppl who have achievd more, i.e., without such support.

ya. coz he won a medal, a gold at it.

look at china, USA...

china & usa hav athletes in every sport, why cant india be like that.

why celebrate for "a" gold like this.

damn, if we had to wait for one gold medal this long, dunno how many decades it's going to take for india to compete against nations like usa, chine....
LOL

china is a developing country like india, but look at the way they are progressing.

But that is only after he won the medal. Does that hold true for Indian cricket?

Also, before Olympics there was lot of news flying around about shooting not getting enough govt. support like providing ammunitions for practice. In spite, of that Abhinav has won so he deserves all that cash and possibly even more.

On the other hand, BCCI is known to be the richest cricket board of India but how many World cups do we have? Just one. Australia have 4 and West Indies have 2.

Sure he deserves some cash reward and a LOT of recognition, but not as much money as he is being awarded now. Last I read the total reward amount till now was ~4 crores! He doesn't even need that much money. He has plenty of his dad's. Didn't his dad say he's going to gift him a 200crore hotel?

Give him say 25 lacs and use the rest of the money to train more people and in different sports so we can win more golds(or atleast a bronze) in the future. This gold is probably the peak of his career. We should be looking towards encouraging and training future athletes.

I agree with what most people here feel about the ridiculous amount of money going into cricket and with average to below average results.

Regarding development in China.. its economy was freed in the 70's.. ours in 1991.. they're a communist nation.. ever heard about strike in China?.. none.. and in India.. ha ha.. They've one child policy there.. and in India.. we've a failed policy of We two our two... and acc. to the sports ministry.. India will bid for the 2016 or 2020 Olympics games..
