Peter Sugarman's book War Above clouds has a number of similar examples...good to see the enjoyment at such heights.

Playing cricket in snow would be one of a kind experience. So can anyone tell which satellite (if any) the dish antenna is angled at?

 

[Last Hope]

What was the score? Who was the man of the match? Highiest wickettaker?

Nice pic... wonder.. how they grip the ball in that kind of temperature...

Also congrats to PA for providing these men opportunity to have entertainment.
Remember these are the worst of the terrain a soldier can ever get. But since they are on the vale, it is good for some mat cricket.

Looks like a simple cement to me... and put a cloth so that the batsman dont slip and fall.

most probably cement. Does pa itself provide bat and other stuffs as a part
Of entertainment or did the soldiers managed it themselves?
Any info the antenna in back ground? Is it a communication radar or some thing else?
