His maturity to accept this and say it publicly tells us how genuine a man he is , proves that he has something very special to be where he is .

Sunil said it right why he was shocked to know that ....for godsake football is most loved game across the world

The day when IND plays FIFA World Cup it will change everything

As a football fan we don't have to hate cricket because our cricket teams are performing well and recently they gave us t20wc trophy and here our football team can't even beat afghanistan and kuwait 🤡🤡

0:10-This is a false report.The football final that happened between France vs Argentina was a record breaking viewership in India with 32 M in India and the cricket final between India vs Australia was 59.5M in India.

Sunil Chetri🔥

Sunil Chhetri the man with a brilliant mind, truly a legend. His understanding of the game and people's mindset is truly incredible. ❤

7 years ago when I was 18, I had received a medal from this guy bcoz of my academic performance (he was invited as a special guest). Just knew his name and that he played for India. Today when I watch this man, I realise how big that moment was in my life😊 Unfortunately, don't have a snap from that day, could have cherished it for life😌😌😌

Sunil Chhetri, Virat Kohli, Rohit 3 GOATs Retired This Year 😭🔥

At least win something, qualify for FIFA. Just like indian cricket did in 1983 worldcup. Only then things will change.

Why people need to hate cricket? Cricket is not funded by Indian goverment. It has it's own body named as BCCI. During the 1983 when India won the WC, BCCI had to organise a concert with Lata Mangeskar to give prize to the players. But today bcoz of their hard work BCCI rules the cricket world. In Europe, South America, etc. football is very popular, does that means that other sports loving people should hate football? Use your brain and logic, not the rumours.

The problem is football is quite popular in India but most Indians are watching European football rather than Indian football.

I am a cricket fan and I also want Football to grow big in India. Football will definetely be the best in the world. But it can never ever beat cricket in India. Just see how many people were there on marine drive last evening. There is no quality in Indian football team. Government should focus on other sports too. Indian people don't care anything else than cricket. This should bechanged from the grassroot level. And this will take time. I hope India plays FIFA world cup in my lifetime 🤞🤞

The thumbnail must be why does Indians doesn't watch Indian football.,the reason is simple every Indian football fans watch foreign league rather than Indian match because we actually can't see any developments and improvement in Indian football team where as there is no hope from fans and Indian cricket which always delivers good quality and competitive cricket and gives us a lost of hope

Sunil Sir spitted facts. We all do respect what Indian football is doing now and We do support it. But yes we do need to think of the practicality of watching quality. We all do want Indian football to grow and we wish that we see ISL to the same craze as we have for EPL, La Liga etc.

No sports can beat popularity of Football ✅

😂 it's just A joke people like football in urban or metro citys But Cricket is religion in India...🎯

Cricket log 1983 world cup jeetne ke bad dekhne lage h

Totally a wrong data aus vs ind final broked the record of most watched game on Ott platform in the world from where you guys are getting data😂

Indian football won Asia cup in 1962 and Indian cricket won Wc in 1983.Look at the improvement.1983 is a turning point which increased the hopes as well as the number of Indians watching cricket greater than football,where couldn't win a single trophy except Saff Cup which is a complete minnows championship and India won at the biggest stage of cricket

I'm a cricket fan and don't find football very entertaining but I desperately want India to improve in the world of football. Let's stop this war of cricket vs football. Cricket players deserve respect & appreciation for giving India the world cup recently and footballers need a lot of support. But we also have to understand that people will only appreciate you when you do something big for the country. Why would anyone prefer to watch a team that loses to Afghanistan and Syria rather than watching a world champion team??

He is honest❤

I cheered and cheered , we gathered, together to cheer for team india. Yes, we won the cricket world cup. NOW ITS TIME WE CHEERS FOR FOOTBALL INDIA. PLEASE 🙏

In Indian Cricket each era had their legends like Gavaskar Era, Kapildev Era, Sachin Era, Dhoni Era, Kholi Era, now new generation coming and we played it in our streets it was like a religian. But football was famous in 50's and begining of the 60's the not enough support from the government and no sponcers, no proper leagues we quit watching football. Now in youtube Social era, Messi-Ronaldo Shorts made Genz's watching football, the Europian and Latin American football is more glamor, speed, furious, intensity, so they are watching it. Our's is developing we should improve our players then in future our football will develope.

Greatest footballer in india

Hats off Sunil Sir's Critical Thinking skills Even I watch every Indian football team International matches

Football is global sport it's greatest sport in the world 🌎🌎🌎 football is at another level

This is the problem i have been addressing to cricket harting football fans that they watch foreign leagues and World football and not Indian leagues or Indian football they don't know anything about Indian football, and they say they are football fans.

He is the nicest role model and he should take Indian football forward

The guy's knowledge with respect to sports in general is mind-blowing...

Because Cricket can hide few player's weakness and football cannot 😅😅😂😂😂😂😂😂

Football is the most popular sport on this planet, even a kid knows this.

Cricket became big in India after India won the world cup in 83. If football wants to become bigger in India then Indian football will have to won something big equivalent to that cup.

Chamatkar ke baad hi Namaskar hota hai, keep loosing to Afghanistan and expect things to change ? 1983 world cup win was the turning point for Cricket.

For me, it's Football! Just love this sport!❤❤❤❤❤❤

People gather interest in a sport when you spend many many hours in your childhood enjoying the game with your friends. The day when mini football fields start popping up in municipality gardens and complexes which is affordable for everyone, that day will be a beginning of an era of emergence of football in India and will give the fruits a few years later 🙏🙏

Cricket popularity in india 🗿🗿 Football popularity in india 🤡🤡

You would watch your team if they will do better,we all know viewership would have gone peak in india,if they had qualified to fifa this time

Men watch football ⚽ Boys watch cricket 🏏

European football is has highest quality brother don't compare it to cricket

"Dhire Dhire" ❌ "Aste Aste" ✅

CRICKET ❤❤❤

Sunil Chhetri is a legend ✅🇮🇳

Your comment about quality in every area including football is absolutely right 👍 that's the real difference...❤❤ Sunil ji

Kuchh Craze Aise Hote Hain Jiska Place Koi Nhi Le Skta Jaise India kitne bhi FIFA world cup jeet le ya Argentina In Cricket Kitne sare world cup jeet lee. End result will Football can't match Cricket craze in India And Cricket Can't Match Football In Argentina.

No sunil. It's not only football who has competition. Basketball and volleyball also has same level of competition in the world.

Honest but blunt 🙏🏾💙

This man is so mindted One day this man and india make the history in football ⚽⚽⚽⚽

Mai football isliye nahi dekhta kyuki mujhe pata hai haarna hi hai 🥲

That was perfectly summarised ❤

In nagaland ,manipur,mizoram Public support local sport person

What a brain , sunil chettri

Indian Olympic kyon nahin dekhte Kyunki Olympic mein Indian athlete bar bar har jaate Hain😅😅

We watched,,, but everytime we become disappointed,,, our football team not growing,,, that's a fact।

The way to raise the level of Indian football is to recruit players who are physically strong PK Bannerji, Chunni Goswami and Neville D'souza were physically strong and with Coach Syed along with 6 muslim players which superior physical skills made the defense very strong to compete with Europe and teams like Germany who have very strong defenders

The day india wins fifa, football will be more popular in india than cricket AND hating on cricket fans because they like watching cricket is really stupid, everyone is free to enjoy whatever sport they like.. Our football players have to win big tournaments and build their fanbase.

I like the way he is speaking logically.

India has a population of India is 140 crores. It is a big market. So FIFA should conduct FIFA World Cup in India. It is possible if former CM of Odisha Mr.Naveen Patnaick become the PM of India. There is no PM in India who can support the development of football in India.

Gem of a person

Football 😭 Cricket 😎

yahi baat yeah Hindi mein bolta toh badiya hota .. Ek aisi desh mein jaha 80% log hindi samajh sakte hai waha english bolke audience kam kar rahe ho

The football will become the No.1 sport in India if FIFA World Cup is held in India.

Kapil dev k world cup jitne se pehle koi cricket bhi nahi dekhta tha india me ,football team ko pehle kuch bada karna hoga fir india me aap popular honge

Shamani yaar what a dumb question to ask bro 😂 ...how do you act so knowledgeable when you couldnt understand why people like to watch PL than ISL. Because ISL is shit in quality and PL is top notch. And kudos to my captain Sunil bhai for accepting it out and putting it out so cleanly and straight forward.

Try to send indian football players into Saudi Pro League or into MLS, at least they will improve slightly.

He casually said. Karab chees kon dekt te ho?

In India ,Football world cup final has total viewers 32 million but cricket world final has live watching of 59 million this is wrong don't spread false information 😢

The Europeans introduced astro turf in Hockey because they were physically strong and athletic Unless Indian football becomes stronger it will compete better with the Europeans

Mark my words:=2034 ke world cup mai india super eight mai pauchegi

Kuch bhi 😂 record dekh viewership ka ind vs aus ka 🏏🇮🇳🌎🙌 cricket is religion India emotion life all all cricket fan likes my comments

We should spent more effort & money on footabll rather than cricket. Our team is good at cricket that doesn't mean that it would have to be over football. Football is the greatest sport of all time⚽💟

Jis din india best countries se win karna start kr dega us din se bht sare log football match dekhenge

I support both but lack of skill of our player I slightly loss my interest on Indian Football , you have to do something like Kapil Dev did on 1983 then you'll see the changes.

इंडियन फुटबॉल टीम अगर एशिया कप में भी अच्छा खेले तो भी पूरा देश उसे सपोर्ट करेगा। लेकिन फुटबॉल टीम तो जीतती ही नहीं है। पिछले ओलंपिक में लोगों ने हॉकी की टीम को भी जमकर सपोर्ट किया था।

Cricket is the reason why India is seen powerful and winner in the world not football. But still there are some indians who like football more than cricket means they dont like their country and india's success they like other countries more than their own country. Cricket is India's power. Football is India's weakness.

BTW I don't think his stats about FIFA WC Final having more views than INDAUS WC Final in India is correct. Can somebody verify this? Is he talking about streaming alone here? Football has no competition. It is the most popular sport in the world by a huge margin. The day India qualifies for FIFA WC, we will realize it. I wish India, China, and USA (top 3 nations by population) focused more on football. USA has a decent team, but they are far behind in soccer considering how good they are at sports generally.

I dont trust the said stats in video😂

Bhai isl and national match is defferent thing and why people not watching India football because we are bad and we didn't achieve anything thing in football 🙏

4:02

I think Bro has some personal issues with Ronaldo😂

The football can be developed in India if the people in highest authority wish to do this. The person in highest authority in India is PM of India. Present PM isn't thinking about the development of football in India. So the former CM of Odisha Mr.Naveen Patnaick should be the PM of India. If Mr.Naveen Patnaick become the PM of India he will do all the good work for the development of football in India.

Kya timing bhai, old video?

The Fifa world cup final was watched by 32 million fans in India. Whereas the cricket World cup final was watched by 53 million people in India. You can google it if you want. I don't know where you got these stats😂

Many people are saying cricket is famous becaus Indian cricket team is winning trophy more in cricket compare to Indian football team. I think this is one of the reason but not main reason. Even before IPL in 1990s or 1980s Indian student in schools, kids during evening playtime were playing cricket much more than football. The main reason Indians like cricket more compare to football is Indian rate the cricket skills more sophisticated than football skills. Also while playing cricket you get more chance to show your performance in batting or bowling or in wicketkeeping. You are good in one of the skill atleast like either batting or bowling or even in wicket keeping. In football only few or the best in team performace looks visible. In cricket you get proper chance to bowl even you are bowling just one over. Indian rate cricket skill like fast bowling, out swing, inswing, off spin or leg spin as an art and player is artist. People enjoy adrelin rush to take pressure during bowling over or batting. Football is also tough game and number of skills are required but most of those skills are not easily visible to ordinary veiwer and also many kids playing themselves are not interested in those skills except adrelin rush to score goal whose chance is very less. Every event in Cricket like bowling and batting on each bowl give player chance to show skills. In every bowl bowled a bowler or batsman can show best moment of the match either in bowling and batting. Each player in a crciket team love his main skill as a batsman or bowler. In football most of the player wants to play in attacking position because player who goal will get almost all credit. A kid or teenager may not think about these directly but indirectly it effect which sport they like more and cricket become their first preference to play for enjoyment. I think this may be one of the reason cricket is more famous in subcontinent where most people understand both game and have also played both game and preference start ntilting toward cricket. In england cricket is summer sport due to weather and winter is tough time play cricket due to cold. Even in summer time rain can spoil the game any day in England. England is european country and native white population consider win in a football match higher glory than winning against subcontinent team in cricket because they are competing with countries like germany, france and wants to showcase their greatness to their european neighbours. If Germany and france would have cricket as most popular sport, England would have also cricket as most popular sport. It is the same pshycological reason for New Zealand, Australia and West Indies.

The problem with this indian football team is there is individuals. Apart from Sunil chetri no one knows who is in this team. One of the wrost phase in football history. Mr chetri himself one of the reason for this he never acknowledge his teammates only me myself😢😢😢😢😢

Give something some hope to fans It’s like cricket in 70’s

Wring stat brother, Football finals ki viewership ki not even close to what indian cricket viewership is!

India me cricket jyada famous but majorly other countries me football England me josh buttler ko pehchan tak ni pate kafi log🙌🏻

He should lead federation for next 10 years

I watch world football yes since I like matches with great personalities…and ISL camera angles and quality for someone who like watch to it for passing time ISL is so bad 😅

One day cricket is world popular

So from the web, I got these numbers (not sure how reliable all of these are). Peak digital viewership numbers within the Indian market: 2022 Fifa WC final -- 32m 2023 ODI WC final -- 57m 2024 T20 WC final -- 53m

How am i gonna tell my son that India lost to Afghanistan and failed to qualify for the World Cup?

Mostly Indians Football isiliye nahi dekthe kyooki India mein Football ka woh craze nahi banta jo Cricket ka banta hai. Football ka popularity bohot hi kam hai India mein as compare to Cricket.

i wish football was more popular game in india rather than cricket

Raj The stats you are talking in starting of video about viewership of cricket world cup and football world cup is Not True... Cricket world cup 23 Final viewership is more 300 million and talking about FIFA World Cup 2022 Final was 32 + million viewership [ in India ]

Bhai who will be next coach in IND football team 😢😢😢😢😢.... just focus

Cricket is my love

ISL kidhar aata hai kaha par dekhey

Football players are paid exorbitant amounts of salary. Like just for comparison, 120k euro per week is roughly 45crore per annum for one player. Think about how much money that is, then infrastructure, the pitch, academys... India will never be able to compete with europe where the quality is top notch. Also this saudi thing, saudi public fund is financing the buys from europe. And its an elaborate politics plus long term investment to change the imgae of the country and attract foreign investment. Why would India prioritise that level of investment in football when we dont have enough capital to build good manufacturing infrastructure for young people? This is a pointless debate
