In Hockey and kabbadi same story... india is overwhelming favourite but lost the story shockingly

In kabbadi it seems ok as iran is improving  a lot and olympics is not at stake

in Hockey its unforgivable that India lost the easiest way of olympic quota.... mens team losing to malaysia is beyond imagination...over confidence killed them
