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.

A lot depends on the performance of the national team. India do have a good football team, but right now they are ranked 104 as per FIFA. With most of the other sports, it is the same situation. You will never find the Indian team in football world cup or the basketball world cup. India used to be one of the strongest teams in hockey, but those days are long gone. Last time they won the hockey world cup was in 1975.

Soccer is worldwide best way to earn good money but sadly here in Sub-Continent we have too much hype with cricket and fact is too much money also involve and other sports have nothing like this because these things need some good infrastructer and baseline so these things need some good money which is not available for any other game then cricket even we can produce some good number of individual players in one player format but not one doing any work for this also so just cricket fever is around us youngsters don't want to play any other sports other then this which is really poor for us.

Different games are popular in different countries. Also you can see the positive side of this that there are only 8 - 10 cricket playing nations and we should be proud that our country is included in it. Although it would have been better if you could had a good soccer team but nevertheless, we should focus on games on which we have the talent like cricket.
