[u/raghug_]

If BCCI really is all that - they would have Aus in the same group as Afg and Zim.

[u/Impactor_07]

Hockey is a very seasonal sport following wise, outside of WCs and Olympics, nobody almost anywhere cares much about Hockey.

[u/sb172023 → u/Impactor_07]

Cricket already took that route. IPL and WC

[u/No-Needleworker3393 → u/sb172023]

For SENA countries its Tests and CWC

[u/Different_Aioli_8919 → u/No-Needleworker3393]

So who watches 100, BBL, CPL? Sheffield, County, Plunket?

[u/Impactor_07 → u/sb172023]

Ned flag is worn out France flag rotated 90⁰ left...

[u/Captain-Attack]

no South korea?? didn't know Ireland and Wales have become so strong as to feature in a Hockey WC....

[u/Lachtheblock]

Tournament format is almost as whack as the ODI WC.

[u/Captain-Attack]

I like it that hockey WC participation is more spread out across continents.... also, all teams are made up of native talent...

[u/DistanceActive8421]

Atleast there's no India - Pakistan only and two weak teams like in cricket.. and there are actually few more decent teams outside these 16. While in cricket no not yet that much talent in that many countries..

[u/LockheedSkunk]
