Maram Pitti(its like a desi dodgeball) - Played with a hard rubber ball(tennis ball size) and all you have to do is hit anyone around you(not the face) as hard as you can.No rules.Loads of running around and preffered in small enclosed areas.
Pithu- Take 7 marble stones slabs(small broken ones,5-10sq cm).Pile them up one over another.Two teams.First team has to break the pile,with a tennis ball from a distance(3 tries per player,and if the 3 tries fail to break the pile,its out,like baseball).If the pile breaks, the first team has to assemble it ASAP because the players of the 2nd team have to collect the ball and hit the players making the Pithu(pile), if you're hit its out.This keeps repeating untill all the players are out.The team which makes the most no of pithus wins.This game is also played in an enclosed area, not an open field.Mostly played in colonies.
I have no clue how these games sound while reading, but you have to see them once.It is a lot of fun! Maybe they are played in Pak with a diff name?
