a very good friend of mine also devoted his life for the game,he sacrificed his careear,his family every thing but he could not make his place even in any departmental team.thoug.well,one must play the game for the love of it and not for the fame or fortune.secondly,we have to develop our regional structure in such a way that talent does not go unnoticed.plus the selection criteria for the national team should be only and only performance,not past laurels or contacts etc.and we need more & more sports channels in our countries,so that provincial and national level players also get coverage.
