When the villagers are unable to pay the crippling land tax imposed on them by their British rulers due to draught and famine. Captain Russell offers them a challenge. To assemble a team and face the British soldiers in a game of cricket, a game they have never heard of. If the villagers win, the land tax will be waived for three years, if they lose, it will be tripled!
