National competitions are held in
these
two games. Among equestrian sports, tent-pegging has a
uniquely Indian flavour. Camel races and elephant races are also
uniquely Indian. With the introduction of new equipment and
techniques of coaching and training, there is hope that India will
show a marked improvement in various disciplines of sports. Unlike other countries, India is not a major sporting power. The lackadaisical attitude of the government results in just a medal or two in the Olympics and no trophies to boast of in sports other than cricket. Among Indian Sports Stars, Sunil Gavaskar's record of 34 test centuries remains unbeaten though his aggregate of 10,122 test runs was surpassed by Allan Border of Australia. Many argue that Sachin Tendulkar is today's best batsman with his flamboyant stroke play and heap of runs he has accumulated in all forms of the game. At the young age of 17,
another Sports Star Vishwanathan Anand became an international chess grandmaster.
