Cricket is followed religiously not just in India but also in our neighboring countries, be it Pakistan, Bangladesh, or Sri Lanka. Fans turn up in huge numbers to watch the teams play and cheer them on. And if there’s India and Pakistan, a bit of ‘extra’ is surely to be expected! We can’t do without the ‘aashirwad’ or the ‘painted bodies’, can we?
