2014 in Indian sports
The year 2014 was a significant period for Indian sports, marked by notable achievements and events across various disciplines. In cricket, India hosted the ICC T20 World Cup, although the national team faced disappointment in the tournament, exiting in the group stages. The Indian men's hockey team experienced a resurgence, winning the gold medal at the 2014 Commonwealth Games held in Glasgow, further solidifying its status in the sport. The 2014 Asian Games in Incheon saw India secure a total of 57 medals, with standout performances in athletics and wrestling. This year also witnessed the continued rise of badminton, with players like Saina Nehwal and Parupalli Kashyap gaining international acclaim. Overall, 2014 reflected the growing fervor for sports in India, alongside expanding infrastructure and support for athletes.
