After competing in the Olympic Games in 1928 and 1932, Chand led the Indian team at the 1936 Berlin Games, scoring three goals in the 8-1 victory over Germany in the championship game. He scored 133 goals during India’s successful 1932 world tour.

Dhyan Chand had previously played under Jaipal Singh Munda at the 1928 Olympics in Amsterdam and for Lal Bokhari at the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles. He won a few Olympic gold medals after that, but he had his dream run between 1928 and 1932.
