Because India places a lot of emphasis on playing Cricket and Field Hockey and India's best team players will gravitate to those sports. Just like in the USA there is a bigger emphasis on playing tackle football, basketball, ice hockey and baseball for professional income and not much on soccer

Cricket was only one among the colonial team sports that caught on in India. But it perhaps became most popular because it was not a team game involving coordinated activity; individual effort still ruled
