Which, of course, is not the same as 20/20 Cricket. Last year's trip was the first time we went out of our way to arrange a cricket match, as has been discussed in an earlier blog post, and we were fortunate to set it up again. Last year it was mainly me hectoring the students into playing, but this year it was Chris, one of the students, who was the driving force. The only role I played was directing him towards toward Mohit and Adi, who, being true Indians, didn't take much convincing. There was a lovely open space above the glamping ground in Pushkar and we had lot of fun.

| Oddly, and just like last year, the students, in this case Laney, unfailingly love playing cricket. |

| And here's Mellissa demonstrating true cricket excellence, or, well, good sportspersonship. |

| I think you know you're playing cricket in India when the boundary is a Hindu temple. |

And as Ana, Wes and Blade can attest, it was a very civilized affair.
