India-Pakistan Photo

Photographer’s Note

Perhaps the greatest sports rivalry in the world is between India and pakistan in a hockey and cricket match. tempers and emotions run hight in fans whenever the two teams meet. the photograph is taken at national stadium, new delhi on pakistan's hockey team visit to the capital. However cricket is like "god" in india, notice the supporters carrying the photograph(on the national flag) of sachin tendulkar(a cricketer) in the hockey match!

Namaste Yogesh,
I like the mood that you have captured in this sports fans. Each one is showing their emotion in a different way and the flag's central location great.
Regards

I can feel the atmosphere i this shot, all this excitement about cricket. I remember seeing dozens of people watching the game in the window of a shop in Delhi.
I like the way you have framed the picture with the flag in the center.
