Kho Kho World Cup: 'Co Co!' is how the Australians call Kho Kho. It just took some googling and training sessions that were held in the cities of Sydney, Melbourne and Canberra, and the sport was warmly accepted. They are now gearing up to be a part of the inaugural World Cup scheduled to take place here from January 13 to 19.

The Australians have always been known for having a rich sporting culture. From cricket to rugby, they have been a force to reckon with and are all set to excel at Kho Kho where they will be featuring in both men's and women's categories.

From each team of 15, besides there being a handful of Indians, there are 6 male and 8 female players of Australian origin. Gus Dowdle, one of the members of the team, expressed delight and excitement of coming to India and being a part of history.
