Pad up to have a ball

Getting the right prediction
If you consider yourself to be a cricket expert, head to a suburban eatery where you can put your skills to the test. Play a game called Predict the Score, where patrons will be asked to guess the number of runs to be scored and the number of wickets to fall every three or five overs. The person who comes the closest wins free beer, wine, sangria or appetiser.

At Out of the Blue, Le Sutra Hotel, 14 Union Park, Khar West.

Screening it big
What's the ideal way to watch a cricket match? Live at the stadium, of course. But if that's not possible, a giant screen is the next best option. And that's exactly what you'll get at an Indian fine-dine in Khar that's getting into the mood of the IPL. Not just that, you get buy-two-get-three deals on beer, tequila, vodka, gin, rum, whiskey, malts and wine during match hours, too.
