A Cricket match (Between Schools) - An Essay

A CRICKET MATCH
(Between schools)

Last month we played a one-day cricket match with the team of on their invitation of A.B.C. School. We took it not as a match but a challenge and reached the ground on the fixed time. Being Sunday, schools were closed so a large number of students from both schools were present there. There was also a great presence of our teachers to screw up our courage to play better and win the match. This match became more important because the Mayor (Chairperson) of city also came on our request. We all were introduced to him at a quarter to ten.

Our captain won the toss and we decided to bat first. The match began at ten in the morning. Both sides played well. Our team was out by lunchtime and we had scored 279 runs. The other team started playing after lunch. They were out by four thirty. Their total score was 217. Thus, our team won the match by 62 runs. We were very happy.

Our captain was declared to be the man of the match. The Mayor of our city gave us the victory shield. Our principal announced rupees ten thousand for every player of our team and rupees twenty thousand for our captain.
