A group of boys was playing on the streets of Kolkata. A few of them were playing cricket together. Cricket is not a familiar sport in Japan, but it is the number one sport in India. If you become a top player, it is not unusual for your annual income to reach several hundred million yen, making it a successful and profitable sport. It is no wonder that cricket has become the object of boys' admiration, as it is a popular sport and a good source of income. The boys playing cricket on the streets of Kolkata may have aspirations to become professional cricketers.
The boys noticed me holding the camera and smiled at me. But it wasn't the picture that bothered me, but the whereabouts of the cricket ball. That's how much the boys were into cricket on the busy street.
