KABADDI-PAK-IND-ASIA

This photograph taken on November 1, 2012 shows a Pakistani player (C) competes against team India during their warm up Kabaddi match in Lahore. As long-frozen cricket ties between Pakistan and India thaw, the two arch-rivals are also hoping this weekend’s Kabaddi Asia Cup can bring the countries closer together. The traditional team sport, in which players try to tag opponents while holding their breath, is hugely popular in the Punjab provinces of both countries and is putting down roots among expatriates in other Asian countries.
