They’re big into T20 which is fast paced and exciting.Indian football will never prosper until the corrupt politicians there stop eating up the funds FIFA gives to the country to promote soccer.
Also, it doesn’t help that a billion people are obsessed with one sport and one sport only. Sadly, that one sport happens to be slow paced and tedious (the complete opposite of soccer)
Still takes 3.5 hours doesn’t it?They’re big into T20 which is fast paced and exciting.
Amir Khan?Has there ever been a world class Indian/Pakistani/Bangladeshi athlete?
(Not cricket, not entirely sure if they count as athletes)

India had a distance runner who won gold at the Olympics in 70’s or something. I watch Tennis and they’ve had top doubles players over the years, produce top hockey players etc.Has there ever been a world class Indian/Pakistani/Bangladeshi athlete?

I don’t think any Indian has ever won an individual gold medal at the Olympics in an athletic sport.India had a distance runner who won gold at the Olympics in 70’s or something. I watch Tennis and they’ve had top doubles players over the years, produce top hockey players etc.
Cricketers are athletes.
Hamza Choudhury. There was Michael Chopra before that I guess.The question wasn't clear if it included first generation immigrants.
Also @Flying Okapis Leicester have a midfielder who's half Bengali if that counts.
I think the questions was Indians/Pakistanis born there and raised there as South Asians.Vikash Dhorasoo was of Indian descent, Luciano Narsingh has Indian roots.
