India’s landmark tour to Pakistan in the year 2004 was extremely special as they were touring to their neighbouring country after a gap of more than a decade. As things got underway, the Indians went on to prove their mettle on the cricket field by winning both the Test and ODI series quite impressively.

In what was the first Pakistan tour for most of the team members, the Indian players enjoyed great hospitality from the host country and had a lot of fun. One of their craziest stories from the tour came when a few of them including the likes of Sachin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid disguised themselves as women by putting on burqas and tried the sumptuous Pakistani street food.
