India's national game is hockey but you will hardly find anyone discussing hockey. The problem with other games in India is the lack of exposure and sponsorship. A few years back they did start a few leagues but the exposure is very little and not many games are being played in the respective fields. On the other hand, cricket is being played constantly and therefore everyone is excited. Much depends on the respective boards or federation to organize bilateral matches or domestic matches. You cannot expect once a year league to increase the fan base.
