Dhyan Chand weaving his magic at the 1936 Berlin Olympics

From Amsterdam 1928 to Melbourne 1956, India won six consecutive Olympic golds in Hockey. Across seven Olympics, they won a majestic 30 matches on the trot before Pakistan pipped them in the final of Rome 1960 to clinch their first gold.

The world record for the highest margin of victory in an international match in Men’s Hockey, too, was set by the same Indian team. Dhyan Chand, the Legend himself, scored 8 goals while his brother Roop Singh notched up 10, as they annihilated the home side 24-1, at the Los Angeles Olympics of 1932.

Such domination in the game at the biggest stage for over three decades is one monstrous achievement that will easily outrank prospective contenders, forever.
