We remain so obsessed with cricket we risk overlooking the hockey equation.
India’s 5-3 in Amstelveen completes a decade of complete hockey domination over Pakistan. Undefeated, with 21 games won and two draws.
A better way to understand this is the total goals scored for and against in these 23 games.
India scored 92 against Pakistan’s 33. We’ve seen many tennis score wins, 7-1 in FIH Pro League, 10-2 in Hangzhou (2023) Asian Games, 6-1 and 7-1 in FIH World League, London (2017).
And of course the 5-3 at Amstelveen.
A 10-gram cooler just broke a monopoly the US, France & Israel guarded for decades.
With only a small Mumbai team, a DRDO fund willing to bet early, & 5 years of someone refusing to look away from a hard problem.
That’s the real lesson in deeptech: it doesn’t only need deep pockets; it needs capital with Purpose & Patience.
India’s defence future will be built on both, big sovereign bets on scale, & small sharp bets like this one that the TDF made on ingenuity.
We need a lot more of the second kind.
Family Offices can play a significant role. I’m personally looking at such initiatives.
