The cricket world transcends India

Gandhi's country hosts the Cricket World Cup. For Indians, fans of this sport, it is the sporting event of the decade.
At the entrance to the stadium, a cheerful crowd of fans surround Sudhir Chaudhary. 
Worth of every team in psl All regulars recognize him and ask him to lend himself to the game of photos. He takes the break, showing off a body coated with paints. Chaudhary is not a player but a cricket fan, one of a kind: his haircut draws the contours of India, his torso sports the colors of the national flag. On his forehead, a white inscription: "INDIA".
Sudhir Chaudhary is one of the most famous Indian fans.
"I have dedicated my entire life to cricket, there is no turning back," he says. 8 years ago, the young man leaves his studies as a teacher to fully live his passion. From his home town of Muzaffarpur on the Nepalese border, he did not hesitate to meet his "god", Sachin Tendulkar , the star of the national cricket team. Without being able to afford a train ticket, he had the idea to make the trip ... by bike. "I cycled for 18 days to see Tendulkar in Bombay." Impressed, the beloved player became fond of his number one fan. Until he offers tickets for games and money to live. To thank you,
When the matches are won, the crowds disperse. Chaudhary, supporting him on a bicycle, remains alone. "He's very introverted," says Amritanshu Gupta, "Cricket is his way of expressing his feelings." A devouring passion that drove him on the roads, by train or bicycle, from Lahore in Pakistan to Dhaka in Bangladesh. In this marginal life, in rupture with the society, Sudhir Chaudhary does not take anyone with him: "I do not want to destroy the life of someone". Between lonely roads and ecstatic stages, his is already written
