An impromptu malakhro tournament (traditional wrestling) popped out of nowhere during my pilgrimage walk in Pakistan’s Sindh and Balochistan provinces. Much drama, growling, physical performance, laughter and some vip access for the only foreigner around. Malakhro dates back some 5000 years! The match begins with both wrestlers tying a twisted cloth around the opponent's waist. Each one then holds onto the opponent's waist cloth and tries to throw him to the ground. #sindhisport
