18 JAN 2012 PUNE OLD CITY AND CRICKET



I spent some time exploring the city of Pune including the old quarter. An old building with bulging timber columns has been turned into a shop selling artifacts and fabrics by local women. This was established by former Mayor of Pune Vandanah Chavan. Near my hotel was Fergussen College where I saw Indian cricket at its best. On a dusty oval there was at least 20 separate games of cricket underway at the same time. Luckily only tennis balls were used but the bowlers were very fast and some batsmen managed to disturb a number of adjoining games.
