Cricket
Hi again,
On Saturday I played cricket for my club. We played Knighton Kings from Hamilton. It was an away game for my team but the pitch was pretty similar. Knighton won the toss and put my team into bat first. I opened the batting and played it safe for the first six overs against their opening pace bowlers. After six overs my team only had seven runs and one out. When they brought on their slower bowlers I decided to hit the bad balls rather than leave them. The boundaries were bigger than normal but I still managed to hit eight fours and retired on 38. The rest of my team batted steadily and made a total of 96 runs at the end of all our overs. Knighton chased the runs down relatively quickly. I ended up with bowling figures of 2/14 after three overs and took two catches in the field. In the end my team played well and I had a lot of fun despite the fact we lost. I’m looking forward to next week’s game.
Bye for now, Gregory.
