Very commendable sports(woman)spirit on the part of all these players. But a word of chide for their dresser. A little bit of thought should have been spared for left-hander Ms. Williams --- since the pallu of her saree needed to be taken from under her left arm to over her right shoulder, the direction of the pleats should have been reversed also, so that their diminishing lengths would have been on the right, ultimately encircling the right side of her waist and the pallu could have been brought forward from under her left arm with elan. Also the lady standing 2nd from right has had her pleats tucked in very cumbrously, which has considerably undermined her otherwise very graceful bearing. These details should be given due consideration when presenting celebrities on such platforms.
