Thats exactly how it is played in India too. :).. Toss with anything on the road that has 2 visibly different sides to it. A bicycles rear wheel as the stumps. If the ball directly goes into a neighboring house without bouncing prior, you're out. One who hits outside the compound wall, will go and fetch it. One bounce, one hand catch is out..so and so forth

Reminds me of my days in the good old days of 70's and early 80's. Wonderful memories!! We didn't even have night matches in those days but the streets, roads, wide compounds and grounds were so safe to play.
