Why is India so bad at sports?

为什么印度的体育水平这么差劲？

主要有4个原因，分别是

1. 印度儿童营养不足的问题：约三分之一五岁以下儿童存在发育迟缓，还有不少孩子体重严重不达标。童年营养不良，直接缩小优秀运动员的选材基数。

2.  印度体育领域存在腐败与兴奋剂乱象

3.  印度政府投入与人才培养体系缺失

4.  印度家庭对体育运动的观念与社会选择：观看体育是国民消遣，但很少有人把职业体育当成出路。印度家长普遍希望孩子考医学院、工程学院，备考升学，不愿冒险走体育道路。

印度是全球人口最多的国家，拥有15亿人口，但巴黎奥运会上，美国拿到126枚奖牌、中国91枚，印度仅收获6枚奖牌，没有金牌，奖牌数量甚至少于克罗地亚、古巴、哈萨克斯坦

 

以下是印度网友的评论：

Scamming isn’t an Olympic sport yet.

诈骗暂时还没被列为奥运会比赛项目。

Because they don’t have cricket in the olympics

因为奥运会没有板球这个项目。

As an Indian - Corruption of all kinds - moral, financial, ethical (lack of) - combined with high ego and extreme inability to see the truth

我是印度人。我们国家的腐败问题太严重了，道德败坏、毫无操守，再加上我们的人普遍自大，根本不肯正视现实。

Can you talk about why China has won so many gold medals but has still always been so bad at soccer, the world’s largest sport?

那你能不能说说，为什么中国能拿到那么多金牌，可他们足球这项全球第一大运动却一直很差？

Why india so bad at sports?
Because we don't accept the truth, we are corrupt and we have a corrupt government who don't have a Good intention to improve anything from sports facilities to sports budget, we don't have anything and also we don't have guts to ask government or politician why you don't encourage youth for sports and gives us equal and fair opportunities.

印度体育为什么这么差？

因为我们不愿面对现实，印度政府也腐败。体育场地建设，政府根本没有真心想去改善，体育经费拨款也不到位。我们什么条件都没有，还没胆量去质问政府和政客，质问他们为什么不去鼓励年轻人参与体育，不给大家平等公正的机会。

India play cricket, Hockey, Wrestling, Boxng, Chess, Ludo, Kabbadi, Badminton, Tennis mostly.

印度人主要玩板球、曲棍球、摔跤、拳击、国际象棋、鲁多棋、卡巴迪、羽毛球、网球等这些运动。

 

fijianz1
Put money as a reward and the right program and you'll see India wng golds... today they excel at cricket and hockey as that's the popular sport

只要设立奖金奖励，配上完善的训练体系，印度就能拿到金牌。现在板球和曲棍球是热门项目，印度在这两项上就很强。

Due to uppercaste lunaticism

根源在于高种姓人群的做派荒唐

we are poor, we are corrupt.. we are lazy

我们国家贫穷啊，腐败啊，我们印度人还懒散。

先生，我们印度人可是天赋最高的民族啊。骗人是我们最拿手的本事。

India seriously need decades of dic ship.
Tragedy of commons is destroying India's future

印度真的需要几十年的强权统治，要不然我们国家没有未来

My country is riddled with corruption. The more immoral, unethical and greedy you are, the faster you can climb the power and finanancial ladder.

我的国家到处是腐败。一个人越是不讲道义、贪婪自私，就越容易捞到权力和财富。

Why Are Black Americans and Jamaicans good at sprints but not West African nations?

为什么美国黑人和牙买加人短跑很强，西非国家的短跑却不行？

They are all working in the call centres. No time for sport.

印度人都在呼叫中心上班，根本没时间从事体育运动。

Let me correct you First of all, athletics and sports are two different things; the Olympics have events for athletics, gymnastics, and sports, and all of these events have been set up according to developed countries. India is good at almost every sport, except for tennis, golf, and football, because over here, rich people throw money around to advance their children, while real talent remains restricted only up to the state level.
​As for athletics, it is true to a large extent in India—we don't have sprinters, no excuse, but yes, this is a fact. Otherwise, in athletics, the whole world is practically lined up against India. Chinese and Japanese competitors cheated and robbed Indian players of medals in the Asian Games; look up how they cheated on the internet, and Indians are suppressed in these events because judges cheat.
​Now, regarding wrestling, there is cheating even at the global level; there is cheating in boxng. And why aren't kabaddi, kho‑kho, and many other games in the Olympics? Do you know why? Because developed countries cannot win in them, and that is the reason they are not included.

我来纠正一下你的说法。首先，田径和体育运动是两码事。奥运会里有田径、体操以及各类体育项目，这些项目规则全都是发达国家制定的。除了网球、高尔夫和足球，印度几乎所有运动项目都不差。在印度，有钱人砸钱捧自家孩子出成绩，真正有天赋的选手最多也就打到邦级赛事就止步了。

说到田径，印度确实短板明显，我们出不来短跑选手，这点没什么好辩解的，就是事实。而且在田径赛场，全世界几乎都在针对印度。亚运会上，中日选手靠作弊抢走印度运动员的奖牌，网上可以查到他们的作弊手段。裁判偏袒打压，印度选手在这类项目处处受排挤。

再说摔跤，就算是国际大赛也存在黑幕，拳击比赛同样有舞弊。那为什么卡巴迪、库霍以及不少本土运动进不了奥运会？你知道原因吗？因为发达国家赢不了这些项目，所以就不把它们纳入奥运赛事。

 

DeepYadav55
And most imp in India parents want their children to be doctors engineers and scientist. If any child want to pursue his talent then there is one rhyme that every indian parent starts singing "if you will play sports you will be a trash and if you study hard you will be a treasure"

还有很关键一点，印度父母都希望孩子当医生、工程师、科学家。如果孩子想走体育这条路，印度家长总会念叨，说搞体育将来没出息，好好读书才有前途。

India has the most do (drug cheating) violations of any country in the past 5 years. Since you want to talk about cheating

过去五年，印度是兴奋剂违规案例最多的国家。

There has been 1 Indian NBA player. He played for 3 minutes and scored 1 basket. He was awful.

印度就出过一名NBA球员。只上场打了三分钟，只投进一球，打得非常差。

 

tainanking
Unathletic plus bad diet just puts the, at a disadvantage overall. Plus no funding. I’m actually surprised they even have enough space for cricket.

我们印度国民的运动天赋一般，饮食结构也不好，整体就很吃亏，再加上经费不足。说实话我都很意外，他们居然还有场地打板球。

 

thebigleone1066
Put cricket in the Olympics and India will win some gold medals.

要是把板球纳入奥运会，印度就能拿不少金牌。

 

chrisnorton300
Yeah, line 2 every year. Great job India, you'd only be 40+ behind the US with FIVE times the population.

行啊，年年拿第二。厉害啊印度。你们人口是美国的五倍，金牌数却要比美国少四十多枚。

 

ElAnciano767
The average income by ethnic group in the US was an eye‑opener. It shows the level of education and motivation of immigrants from India. India also ranks #5 in the world in terms of the number of chess grand masters. Clearly, the national focus has been on academic achievement.

美国不同族裔的平均收入数据很有启发，能看出印度移民的受教育水平和上进程度。印度国际象棋特级大师的数量排全球第五。看得出来，这个国家更看重学业成绩。

 

sparkplug3112‑j2d
Us have its own players
Look US cricket team it looks like asian nation cricket team

美国也有自己的板球选手。看看美国板球队，队员看着就像亚洲国家的队伍。

 

Doomedgorilla
Bro we are still fighting against poverty and hunger, we focus on academics, we are naturally non athletic, we don't have the appetite of a sportsman, now many idiots will only blame cricket, corruption and politics, Sports is not our priority but survival is. So don't pass judgement sitting in the west about our complex and complicated society who is still fighting to have 3 meals a day, all thanks to the west and our peaceful neighbours who divided us and then kept us busy for providing the basics and protecting ourselves from hostile neighbours.

兄弟，我们还在和贫困饥饿作斗争，大家更看重读书。国民天生运动资质普通，没有运动员那样的身体底子。很多人只会把问题归咎于板球、腐败和政治。体育不是我们的头等大事，活下去才是。

西方人别站在高处指指点点。我们社会情况错综复杂，很多人还在为一日三餐奔波。这一切根源，离不开西方和那些所谓友好邻国，他们分裂我们，逼我们疲于解决民生，还要防备敌对邻国。

You conveniently omitted the fact that in the one sport the Indian public does care about, India are usually always the best or a close second. It also happens to be the second‑most watched ball‑based sport in the world.

你刻意忽略了一件事。有一项运动深受印度民众喜爱，印度在这项运动里常年稳居第一或者第二。而这项运动，刚好是全球收视第二高的球类项目。

Indian like bragging rather than sports

印度人更喜欢吹牛，而不是搞体育。

 

Dr.ShreyasSonone
That's why Narendra Modi never held any open media press conference in his entire life to hide the mess they made with Country

莫迪这辈子从不召开公开新闻发布会，就是为了掩盖他们把国家搞得一团糟的事实。

 

NareshMaran‑f6w
I agree that India doesn't lack talent; its talent is directed into different career streams. Indian families can't change the system and don't want to make a bad bet. When it comes to corruption, I still see the same country I saw before 2014.

我认同印度并不缺人才，只是人才都流向别的行业了。普通印度家庭改变不了现有体制，也不敢拿前途去赌体育这条路。说起腐败，如今的印度，和2014年之前没什么两样。

HINDU TANI motto are bow down kneeling to surrender before even the war not yet Started ! BY theirs BAPU who they praise as Father n god and forever follows his order with pride n loves

印度教信徒奉行的信条，仗还没开打就屈膝投降。这都是拜他们口中尊为国父、奉为神明的圣雄所赐，他们还满心崇敬地恪守这套理念。

 

wj82liz
why is this question even worth mentioning? Who cares if India is good at sport or not?

这个问题有什么好拿来讨论的？印度体育强不强，谁在乎呢？

 

cryptohornbill9658
They have medals of bragging how effective they are compared to China

他们拿吹牛当奖牌，吹嘘自己比中国厉害。

indian sport is for rich people

我参加过国际射击联合会青少年高级赛事，也打过乒乓球高级比赛。印度体育就是有钱人的游戏。

 

danishhussain7127
Its a choice we indians have made, if not cricket then better study and make a steady career

这是我们印度人自己的选择。除了板球，大家就觉得好好读书，找一份安稳工作才是正道。

 

nishanshantiktm
Diet‑ oily, carbohydrates and almost no protein. Eat like Chinese less fried and more boiled.

我们印度的饮食存在重油重盐问题，碳水吃得多，蛋白质没有吃够。我们应该学学中国人的吃法，少吃油炸，多吃蒸煮的食物。

竞技体育水平不行，算不上印度最棘手的难题。

You cant become a succesful athlete in India if your parents dont have good connections

在印度，如果家里没有过硬人脉，根本成不了优秀运动员。

Why should India no 1 in preserving phone and flora? 80 % of Asian elephant population is India. 80 % of tiger population is in India despite vast Siberia in Russia is a natural habitat of tigers.

凭什么要求印度体育拿第一？不如看看物种保护。亚洲象80%都生活在印度。就算西伯利亚是老虎原生栖息地，全球80%的老虎也生活在印度。

India is not good in sports but it does not participate, now see the truth, you did not become a stone in a day

印度体育成绩不好，但不是不参与赛事。认清现实，冰冻三尺非一日之寒。

 

avitaandy9361
Because India is a develo country and a lack of consistent, sufficient funding to develop athletes. It is getting better but takes time unfortunately

因为印度是发展中国家，缺少稳定充足的资金去培养运动员。情况正在好转，但可惜还需要时间。

印度体育这么差，是因为缺少运动场地，就只剩瑜伽了。
