Cricket


Do you like a sport that’s quick , tiring and exciting well I’ve got the sport for you. it’s called cricket. Cricket is a bat and ball game played between 11 players. Each team takes a turn at batting attempting to score runs while the other team is feilding. The two sets of three wooden stumps on the pitch are the wicket the two white lines are the creases. The wooden stumps stand behind the Batter is the batter swings his/hers bat and it touches the wooden stumps then he/her is out.

The bowler delivers the ball to the batsman who attempts to hit the ball with his bat away from the fielders so he can run to the other end of the pitch and score a run. Each batmans continues batting until ten batsmen are out , or a specified number of overs of six balls have been bowled, at which point the teams switch roles and the fielding team comes in to bat.    


Cricket was first played in southern England in the 19th century. By the end of the 18th century , it had be developed to be a national sport of England.The game is most popular in  New Zealand ,  Australasia, England, the Indian subcontinent, the West Indies and Southern Africa.

What I did in the holidays

I woke up one morning really excited ready to go Rainbows End with my cousin. It  was very cloudy. I looked up into the sky and I felt a drip of water from the sky went on my face it was spitting as we were hopping into the car all ready to go.

As my mum was driving to my cousin’s house it started to rain. We were disappointed because we couldn’t  go to Rainbows End. All the rides would be closed. Instead we went to countdown and purchased junk all the junk food imaginable. As we were about to purchase junk food my mum received a phone call in the supermarket from my aunt saying she had a baby so we collected all junk food that was in site and rushed to the counter My aunty had a baby and we were gonna go to Rainbows End with them so we went out west to have some lunch at my aunty’s house.

20 mins later we got to my aunty’s house we took the food up stress and said Hi to my cousin’s aunty we put the food in the fridge. I went with my cousin’s to their room to play Black Ops 2 on xbox 360 we played zombies we survived up to round 32 it was fun. after a little while my mum called our names to come get some lunch.
