Australia to compete in first ever Kho Kho World Cup

Published 13 January 2025, 3:56 am
The Ancient Indian game of Kho Kho has been labelled "the greatest sport you've never heard of". It might not have the star power of other sports, but that hasn't stopped an Australian team making its way to India tonight to take part in the inaugural World Cup. The game has a small and loyal group of players here, and they're hoping to boost Kho Kho's profile.
