Carrom — Bangladesh's Favourite Table Game

Carrom is a game of touch. Flick the striker, pocket your nine coins and finish with the red queen covered. It rewards a steady hand and years of practice, and in Bangladesh it is as much a fixture of tea stalls and courtyards as it is of living rooms. Carrom is physical skill; Coridor is mental skill. They sit well together — one trains your hands, the other your planning.
