If they perform to their potential and ability, they are defenitely going to be assets to Indian Team.  Unfortunately they are not doing justice to their potential.  One can see many youngsters coming to Indian Team in the near future before team for the world cup is selected.

When Welsh side TNS qualified for Champions League qualifiers this year Ian (43?) considered coming out of retirement to play for them - he does some commentary for ESPN I believe. \n\nA great professional and ambassador.

Definitely.\n\nYou only have to look at the results.  Maybe the better question to ask would be comparing Barcelona to past champions.\n\nIt's the old debate of Champion Team vs Team of Champions.\nThe only thing that matters is who is winning games, not who's on the squad.\n\n2006 Premera Liga Table\nBarca 82 points from 36 games (clinched title)\nReal 70 points.\n(2005 Barcelona won also)\n\n\n\n2006 Champions League\nBarca - In final\nReal Madrid - Out in Round of 16.\n\nWhere do we stop\nBarca - 102,000 members\nReal - 85,000 members

IT HAS MORE ALL-ROUNDERS.\nIT HAS MANY PLAYERS WHO ARE THINKING TO SERVE THE NATION.\nMORE AND MORE NEW COMERS KNOCKING THE DOOR TO REPLACE A POSSIBLE ONE.\nSO THE EXISTING PLAYER HAVE TO WORK HARD TO SURVIVE IN TEAM.\n\nNOT(LIKE US)DEPENDING SOME PLAYERS.

Seems like.\n\nI guess showbiz and sports person are over hyped in India.\nSania is too.\n\nShe was performing well but in the recent times she did not have any luck.\nShe was among top 50 but dont know where she stands now.\n\nBut I guess people come up to the conclusion about a person from judging the performance of just 1 ( or few ) match(es)\n\nVVS LAXMAN\nPARTHEV PATEL \nBALAJI\nZAHEER KHAN\n\nSANIA MIRZA

Apart from hockey and cricket, India shows little interest to improve in all other sports and games; trailing behind other Asian countries big and small. The next Commonwealth Games to be held in the world's second most populous nation could serve as an indicator of the standard of India's sports in general.

Well maybe your friend is right because all the best teams made it through, you see more quality in the games! but dunno, it's a question of opinion

It is popular in India because other international team sports are either not popular enough in other countries or too competitive.  For instance soccer and basketball may be more popular internationally and offer bigger salaries but they are  highly competitive and India is unlikely to win a World Cup or World Championship.  Hockey is not popular enough and there is no money for players.  Cricket is the right balance, enough countries play it to make it a lucrative career and India is competitive enough to win World Cups and even become the number 1 ranked team.
