Look at the population of India and their sports results are probably the worst in the world.
- In the 2012 Olympics they ranked 55th on the medal table. (no gold)
- In the winter olympics they won no medal.
- Football they are ranked 150th.
- In Test cricket they are ranked 5th equal out of 8 top tier nations. England are pretty terrible right now and they are thrashing India. I think even NZ with 4m people thrashed India in a recent test series. It seems like they don't even try away from home. No fight.
- Their top tennis player is ranked 89.
A lot of the posters on this forum are Indian and say Nadal is terrible because of this, or Federer is terrible because of that. Laughable that anyone can really type away picking holes in these all time legends.
Is India per capita the worst sporting country in the world? I also wonder who is the best per capita? Perhaps Jamaica? ...Serbia not too bad especially with tennis.
