The prime minister, who was wearing the number 1 on his back, was seen changing pitches, throwing a ball and generally enjoying himself. The game was played under the spotlight.
He displayed athletic ability as he ran down the field and saved a bit of cap when he used his feet to deflect the incoming ball.
Chief Justice XI, in yellow, was the first to attack. The match ended in a tie.
