What is the name of the game that is played with large marbles and is almost like Chinese checkers?

Question

It is usually played on a round wooden playing board, and is basically played like Chinese checkers. However, the marbles are bigger, and when a marbled has been 'jumped' it is put along the outside edge of the round 'playing board'. It used to be sold in Bombay before it closed. Please help me! I used to play the game with my Grandma when I was little & I want to give it to my dad for Christmas!
