India has been a home to a number of things from food to crops to machines and now it has been a sports hub too. Indians are known for their madness for cricket which is not even it's national sport. not only for cricket people had been understanding the importance of other sports too let it be shuttle,tennis,or kabaddi. no matter what sport every sport help people to increase the endurance levels as well as their strength to cope up with not only needs of sports but also with day to day needs.
