Pakistani TV shows a bloodied Indian fighter pilot in captivity, sipping tea while being interrogated. He addresses his captor as "sir." But he refuses to divulge any information.
This happened back in February, when Pakistan shot down an Indian fighter pilot, interrogated him and filmed it amid an exchange of airstrikes that brought these nuclear-armed neighbors close to all-out war. The pilot was released home to India in what Pakistan's prime minister called a "peace gesture."
Now there's a spoof of his interrogation video. An actor plays the Indian pilot, with his signature handlebar mustache and holding a teacup. But this time, it's not India's military strategy the Pakistani interrogators are after. It's India's game plan for the ICC Cricket World Cup.

India Pakistan Wagah Border Gate Closing Ceremony
This is how the border between India and Pakistan at Wagah closes every day.
Yes - a bigtime sport for both countries. Played the game once and fun to watch matches. Made many great Indian and Pakistani friends over the years at different jobs. Wife taught Special Ed and at one point had a teacher's aide from both countries helping in the same class. Each would bring over food - all excellent.
Great clip of the border ceremony and alway's liked the handshake and salute at the end.
