The Indian men`s hockey team goalkeeper PR Sreejesh who retired from the sport after winning the bronze medal at the Paris Olympics 2024 said that even though cricket commands more attention, it is always special when the hockey team wins a medal.
"I`m not trying to trick you. See, cricket is more, it`s a beautiful game, definitely. As like you, all the media showcase cricket a lot, and the others are not getting the opportunity to watch hockey, that is one of the reasons," he told the media here after India`s famous win.
