That's what the Sartarites play, but what do the local Lunar officials play?

For anyone that's not seen it, Lagaan is a 3:40 hr Bollywood film about a starving Indian village in the 1890's that gets challenged to a cricket match by the villainous English magistrate. If they win, no taxes for three years. If they loose, tripled taxes! But non of the villagers know how to play the game.
