Cultural Restrictions

Latest news from India: ‘The first women’s cricket series between Pakistan and India will begin in Lahore on Sept 28 with only families allowed to watch because of the cultural restrictions in the country. Unaccompanied male spectators will be barred from entering the venues for the four one-day matches.’ I am curious about this concern about unaccompanied males. Is the sight of women playing cricket so exciting that they may do something inappropriate in public? Or is there something else going on which require an equal balance of men and women in the audience (as it is with some clubs in USA)? I guess my imagination is going wild!
