In Arghandab, Afghanistan, a young boy stands in a dusty, outdoor area, holding a red cricket bat. He is wearing a light green shalwar kameez and dark sandals. The background shows several mud-brick structures with open doorways and rudimentary roofing. In the distance, another child in a blue outfit is visible, and several people are gathered within one of the structures. The ground is covered in dirt, gravel, and scattered debris, including plastic bags and other refuse. The sky above is a clear, pale blue, suggesting it is either early morning or late afternoon.
