Diminishing Hockey Fanbase or Increased Glamour?
Fan support and media coverage for a sport often increase when the team is successful and wins trophies. But the glamour and fandom lie in Cricket where all the athletes try their luck despite no major trophies except in 1992, 2007, and 2015. Despite a lack of victories and major trophy wins, the Bangladesh cricket team still has a dedicated fan base that supports the team.
On the other hand, hockey in Pakistan has seen a total lack of interest and it is sad and confusing that this is the case for a team that has been historically successful. In order to revitalize hockey in Pakistan, it is necessary to establish a league and increase media coverage of the sport. This may require sponsors, but some action needs to be taken to prevent the decline of hockey in the country.
