|AHI 23-1| Final match of the Agra Polo Tournament. Amir Habibullah Khan is sitting on top of the central stairs of the grandstand in between the Viceroy (with white topee) and Lady Minto. Colonel Sir Henry McMahon stands behind the armchair of Lady Minto. Strangely, there is not a single Afghan Sardar with the Amir, who had been up to 3 p.m. with Lord Kitchener at a combined artillery and cavalry display. He only turned up for the last few minutes of the polo game.
