Indian snooker player Pankaj Advani says the sport needs more TV coverage in India to raise the profile of the game.

Advani describes himself as a cueist, is a 23-time world champion in snooker and billiards and is India's most decorated athlete ever.

Speaking with Sportsworld's Shari Vahl, Advani says: "The only difference between Asia and the UK, of course barring China, is that the sport isn't televised as much and that's the need of the hour."
