Koadi: the making

[writinghawk]

The dry weather lasted longer on Saturday, with the result that the bashi, the making of the koadi, and the football were successfully dispatched, in that order. But the koadi procession in the evening was again rained off

Your very brief description of baibalaa made me think it was almost certainly a Kabbadi variant. So others seem to think. There are British Kabbadi teams, though my understanding is we play a non-standard variant with a ring-shaped playing space (without strict boundaries I think) rather than the square "official" pitch.

But anyway, I'd be really surprised if this wasn't an example of that pan-Asian game.

Ah, most interesting. I dare say it is some variant. I'll see if I can get to watch a game of it at some point ...

Who is the "she" in "If she identifies him"?

Ah, thanks for spotting this editing glitch. I've fixed it, mainly be deleting the sentence in question so as not to steal my own thunder: for the answer to your question you'll have to read my latest post, on the procession.
