LEG BEFORE WICKET

Leg Before Wicket is a story about the conflict between India & Pakistan, and about the common passion that is building a bridge between them – cricket. It is also the story of the Chicago Giants, a team of Indian and Pakistani cricketers, who have, in a foreign land, overcome a lifetime of distrust to find friendship on the cricket ground.
