There are infinite ways to play kanchas depending upon how creative you are … and how much kanchas your rival has.

Here are the few ways

1) Nakka – Dua
Interesting
well there can be maximum of four players and minimum of two players unless your are a psycho and want to play alone
On ground make four sections. 1 2 3 4 in a circle like 1 and 4 opposite and 3 and 4 opposite to each other. now one player will take a turn (till he wins he has the opportunity of turn) and the other players will bid. one has to bid (place kanchas) on three numbers out of four. so if Player who is taking the turn comes up with number where there is no bid s/he will take all the kanchas and if the number comes out to be bid number s/he has to shell out those many kanchas.

interesting huh!

2) Gola
Players : any number
turns: decided by “poot ki putai” or selecting numbers under the bat.
a circle is drawn and a line drawn minimum a feet away from that circle (actually depends upon the competence of players ) now certain number of kanchas are collected from players as per the understanding. Player will collect all the kanchas sit behind line and throw all the kanchas in that circle
1) all the kanchas in circle – Player has the chance of winning them all
2) any of tha kanchas goes out of circle – buzzz off! .. next player

now if (1) is true than one of the players will select any kancha and the player sitting has to hit that kancha out of “GOLA” without disturbing other kanchas.
believe me – most of the fights happen because people have parallax.

3) Cavender
Similar like gola but here a rectangle or square is created on the ground bidding number of kanchas taken from every one and placed very nicely in it. Played from finger where when your turn comes your thumb has to be one the ground and index or middle finger is used to throw your king kancha so that it can take out kanchas from “Cavender”. Again those who take out maximum kanchas will be winner.
This game start in the morning and ends up in the night only to realise that every one had fun but no one won actually

4) Khuni- ghisai
This is a friendly game. there is a hole and again any number of players can play. Here you have partners. To avoid chaos numbers don’t exceed 6. Now this hole is reincarnation hole so every time you put your kancha in this hole you get a lifeline. if your rival hits your kancha then you have to drag that kancha to reincarnation hole to again play from fingers. Gosh its a bloody game. Seen players having band-aid on their elbows but still pushing kancha
