That Badhwar Park was spared, they said, was all thanks to cricket. That evening, India was playing England in the fifth ODI of a seven-match bilateral series in Cuttack and the fishermen were glued to their television sets in their sea-side homes.

The sun has set hours ago and a pandal near the jetty at Badhwar Park is brightly lit for a religious event that appears to be winding up. Along the road that has traffic zooming past it are fishing trawlers, some turned upside down, for repair. Like they do every evening, three elderly fishermen sit on an upturned boat catching up on the day’s events after dinner.
