The India men's national basketball team represents India in international men's basketball . It is controlled by Basketball Federation of India .[ 3]
A 1936 founding member of FIBA Asia ,[ 4] FIBA Asia Championship 26 times and is placed in the top five in appearances in this tournament. Further, India's basketball team won four gold medals and one silver medal at the South Asian Games and is the most successful team in the South Asian region. India have also won the SABA Championship six times.[ 5] 2014 Lusofonia Games after they finished the tournament with a 4–0 record as they beat 11–time African Champions Angola in the final.[ 6]
Its most famous moment came at the 2014 FIBA Asia Cup with the win against home favorites and most successful Asian team China by seven points.[ 3] [ 7] biggest basketball win in the nation's history. [ 8]
India appeared at the international stage for the first time ever at the Asian Games in the 1951 edition and the Asian Championships at the 1965 Asian Basketball Championship where it started out as moderately competitive. India became a regular at the event and had their most successful tournament in 1975 when the team even reached the final four.[ 9] [ 10]
Plagued by a lack of popularity and support for basketball at home, at times, India faded into oblivion and only had a handful of successful performances.[ 11] 1980 Summer Olympics when the team got its chance to represent Asia due to the cancellations of some teams who took part in the American-led boycott of the 1980 Summer Olympics .[ 12] United States and Canada ) withdrew from the tournament. India finished 12th out of 12 in the Olympics after getting knocked out in the preliminary round by losing all three of their matches and then losing all five of their matches in the Classification round.[ 13]
While the results did not go India's way one game in particular caught the attention of basketball fans worldwide. India played against the Australian Team , one of the world's top basketball teams. India, which was made up solely of voluntary basketball players competed against the elite team of Australia for almost the whole game until it finally ceded to the Boomers 75–93 after leading at halftime 41–37.[ 14]
Many Indian players also made headlines while in the Soviet Union as well. Ajmer Singh gained worldwide attention as he was amongst the top 10 shooters there and became the 10th best pivot player in the tournament there.[ 15] Sozhasingarayer Robinson , the first Indian basketball player who gained considerable international attention. Robinson led India to a surprising victory over South Korea , one of Asia's top teams.[ 16] [ 17]
At the 2011 FIBA Asia Championship India was coached by former Sacramento Kings head coach Kenny Natt .[ 18] [ 19] South Asia Championship in 2014. India had two wins and finished 3 places higher (11th) in the 2013 FIBA Asia Championship than in 2011 .[ 20] Young Cagers (as team India is often nicknamed) won the Lusofonia games with wins over Guinea-Bissau , Cape Verde , and Angola in the gold medal game. This was Team India's first title ever in a non-Asian competition. In the 2014 FIBA Asia Cup India pulled off the biggest win in their 80-year history by defeating China on their home court 65–58. The establishment of a professional league was a major step in continuing this recent success the Indian team had experienced.[ 21] [ 22] South Asian Championships in 2015 , 2016 , 2017 and 2021 .[ 23] [ 24] [ 25]
