I Play Cricket

Yesterday I went with a group of year 9 girls from my school to our partner school for boys. We were allowed to use all their PE facilities and do sports that are normally for boys only. Most of the girls did football or basketball, but I learned to play cricket.

Cricket is a really good sport for small people like me 🙂 If you are little, there is less of you to get hit by the ball when you are trying to bat. I practised for half an hour with the boys and they said I did very well for my first attempt 🙂

Cricket is also good because you get to spend lots of time outdoors in the sun and you can go to sleep when it is not your turn to bat 😌

for being a batsmen, being short doesn't mean a disadvantage, but good to be tall to be a quick....

@Shutterbug I haven't tried bowling yet, but most of the people who bowled to me were very tall 😕

@TammieBear ....height gives the ball me lift. If you bowl try spin..... :)

@Shutterbug They said it would be easier for me to bat than bowl as I only have small hands.
