Cricket Uncut

It's refreshing that most of the stands have filled up now, to see Inzamam and not Sachin. He's batting beautifully. The delightful thing about the stands is the amount of colour there. Red, green, orange, yellow, blue, violet, mauve, purple: I can see them all from where I'm sitting. This is something you'll see far more in the subcontinent than in grounds elsewhere. And note, most of the people in these stands are men, not women. We have colourful men in India; and sometimes the cricket is good too.
