Looks like this is the Burmese version of English cricket. These are the children in Chin Hills playing a ball game which resembles cricket. (I am not sure as I don’t know how to play cricket). The ball is actually a roll of old cloths tied together with a string. I don’t know where they got the idea for this game. I’ve never seen any child in Yangon play such a game, and as a child, I have never played a game like this when I was young. Anyway, it is so cute to see these poor kids playing a ball game with home made materials like this.

Hi,,, it seems like a game played in India..called seven stones… kids take turn trying to break the structure. If it was cricket then you would have a batsman in front of the structure trying to hit the ball.
Nice of you to post these videos. Miss Myanmar now.
