Lest we forget...

World cup is on (and is almost over). Everyone, everywhere is discussing how India should have played, did play, should play and would play. Its a great atmosphere since we seem to have reasons to think beyond the plethora of scams in India. Great.

But let us also remember that just a few months ago when we bit the dust in the Commonwealth hockey finals, we were talking about how India's sports scenario is over run by different versions of cricket leaving no room for not just Hockey but other sports.

Lest we forget the unsung heroines and heroes, like Akunji, Preeja Sreedharan, Kavita Raut, Manjeet and Mandeep Kaur, Sini Jose (Track and field), Jayanta Talukdar, Rahul Banerjee and Mangal Singh Champiya (Archery)

Best of luck India in the ICC World Cup
