Covergae of Kabaddi less than other sports
These days the Kabaddi World Cup in which India won gold medal made the country proud., but the audiences in India are were able to see the matches but the scores are there in Facebook which shows that that this sport needs backing of the government and also some sponsorship so that this game gains popularity. India which is a champ in Kabddai has done so well in the Asian games winning both gold medal in men's and women's section.Most of the games like Cricket, Hockey especially World Cups is telecasted and there are pre and post shows related to a particular match. I am sure that the people of India must know the game and be proud of the players achievement.
Cricket has been a popular game due to the advent of T-20 , so the people are watching this game with lot of interest and also recently when Sachin Tendulkar retired every news channel and paper there was news about the carrier. Whenever the Indian team wins in Cricket a prestigious tournament the talk is about the achievements and gets a lot of cash prize. There is a specail channel which shows cricketing action from all over the world and everybody watches this game.The main reason why cricket is watched because of sponsorship they get and because of the IPL.
As an Indian fan i would love to see all the games getting equal credit but for the past 2 to 3 years other games are getting some recognition. In every sports some Indian talent are coming out . The advent of IBL , HIL has helped the foreign and Indian players to know each other. PV Sindhu, Saina Nehwal who are stars of badminton, the telecast of every badminton is shown live and on facebook.
The EPL which is popular tournament in England is being watched on TV live but the domestic matches in India needs more audiences.
So lets hope that Kabddai get the same criteria as the other sports but the main thing is that if the men's and women's team wins tournaments but the telecast is not shown on TV the audiences will not know the small points of the games
The Pro Kabaddi League which finished few months back was telecaster live in Hindi and English. The matches of Kabaddi in Asian games 2014 was also shown live.
