What do y'all think?? Is it OMAN??

Slowhatch · « **Reply #1229 on:** October 30, 2008, 10:40:59 AM »

Still India, I think; that looks like Devanagari on the side of the truck.

Does all of it look like India? I haven't had time to look

While they may be in other areas, the guys with the orange turbans could be from the Rajasthan area of northern India.

The only autorickshaw I found with a "pink top" was in Mumbai.

Boingo · « **Reply #1236 on:** October 30, 2008, 02:21:37 PM »

oh wait, found another pink autorickshaw in Mumbai

I found a purple-topped auto rickshaw in Bangalore.

I'm hunting down stadiums, lol

Peach, all the cricket matches I have ever seen in movies have not been in large stadiums. You need to look for places where cricket matches are held. The only large stadium in the Delhia area which is the site of occasional test matches is Feroz Shah Kotla. It is owned by the DDCA (Delhi District Cricket Association). That organization lists cricket clubs in the Delhi area:

Delhi Cricket : Cricket Academy and Clubs in Delhi
West Delhi Cricket Academy
Address : Paschim Vihar, Delhi-110063
Other Sports : Cricket Club, Cricket Coaching

Dda Sports Cplx
Address : Siri Fort Road, Delhi-110049
Other Sports : Cricket Club, Event Organisers, Swimming Club

Dda Sports Complex
Address : Saket, Delhi-110017
Other Sports : Cricket Club, Sports Clubs, Sports Complex

Delhi Cricket Association
Address : Ito, Delhi-110002

EDITOR's NOTE - I relaized late that Peach has little interest in Delhi cricket locations for ARA3 (aothough she might for AR13). The only cricket venue I have found in Cochin is Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium seating 85,000. It did not appear that the cricket field in the screeenshot was more than 2% of that capacity. I am still working on it.

Brad and Angelina in pink autorickshaw in Pune.

Pink tuk-tuk in Pune

got it! Matched the cricket to Nehru Stadium wicket in Pune

That's nice, Boingo but Pune is 1221 km (757 miles) from Cochin. What reason would justify taking teams on an additional plane ride just to play cricket in Pune? This makes no geographic sense.

Slowhatch · « **Reply #1245 on:** October 30, 2008, 05:18:30 PM »

Nice work!

The wikitravel page suggests that flying into Pune might be a problem because of the shared military use.
On a slightly different subject, I came across this "amazing race for the clinically insane" while looking through autorickshaws.

Yes Boingo, do tell

georgiapeach · « **Reply #1247 on:** October 30, 2008, 05:41:09 PM »

Well it is definitely a match so they are there... "ours is not to reason why..."

thank you for saving me from one more minute in a cricket pitch--never liked that game anyway!:lol:

Great job Boingo!

Why does anybody need to justify it lol? they're there and that's all that matters, whether it makes geographic sense or not.

...as we can see, pink autorickshaws are everywhere in India... and these guys in their wedding turbans suggest there are orange turbans in Pune. Now for that store with that cool sign.

anyone else thinking a train ride from Cochin to Pune
