Dhyan chand - The Greatest Sportsman India has ever produced

[Vivasaayi]

what Brad man is to cricket

is dhyan chand to hockey!.

* 29 August, Dhyan chands birthday is celebrated as the National Sports Day in India. The President gives away sport-related awards such as the Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna, Arjuna Award and Dronacharya Award on this day at the Rashtrapati Bhavan.

*Don Bradman remarked "He scores goals like runs in Cricket".

*Adolf Hitler supposedly offered to make Dhyan Chand a Field Marshal in the German army, but the latter refused.[1] Chand scored 59 of India's 175 goals in the pre-Olympic matches and 11 of 38 in the Olympics.

(till now only two indians have achieved the rank of field marshall- general kariappa and manaksha).


he was a magician more than a hockey player.
