Watching with the sound up means my old transistor radio, tuned to the Hindi feed, is telling a completely different story from the TV’s English one. The caller is describing a dropped stitch of a catch, while the camera is chasing the bowler’s furious reaction—two separate kahaniyans altogether. I keep one ear on the radio for the commentary’s *jharna* of familiar words, and smile at how a match, like a shawl, can have two such distinct patterns.
