A CRICKET MATCH

1. Nobody can deny the importance of sports and games in life. They play a vital role in building

our body and muscles and nerves. Besides this, games teach us endurance and tolerance.

Matches are events full of enthusiasm, zest, and gusto. Some matches are quite thrilling,

sensational, and full of suspense. Such matches are enjoyable and people are amazed

to watch them.

2. I will always be someone who wants to do better than others. I love competition.

I also got a chance to watch such a match just last Friday. It was the final match of a cricket

tournament. The match was played between Pak Fighters Cricket Club Multan and Eleven

Stars Cricket Club Alipur. It was played on a pleasant morning. The stadium was jam-packed

with the spectators. The umpires with the two captains came into the ground. First of all, the

two captains tossed a coin, and it was won by the captain of Eleven Stars Cricket Club Alipur.

They decided to bat first. Both the openers entered the ground with dignity. They came

running towards the pitch circling their bats around. The fielding team also came up running

to take their positions in the field. The two official scorers took their seats. The commentary

on the match, both in English and Urdu, was exciting and enjoyable. The sky was overcast a

bit at the start of the match, but soon, afterward, it was a sunny day.

In the beginning, the match was a bit slow in tempo. It was a 25-over match. In the first ten

overs, the batting team could score only 30 runs for the loss of four wickets, in the next 10

overs, they further lost three wickets but the score was then one hundred one. The last five overs

were the most exciting, for they scored 57 more runs in them. The total reached 158 runs

in 25 overs for the loss of nine wickets.

3. After the first innings, there was a short break of 45 minutes. During it, the vendors appeared

with various eatables. The spectators began chatting, eating, and drinking tea and cold drinks,

soon the match resumed. In the First seven overs, the Pak Fighters Club easily scored

seventy runs without losing any wicket. But the next three overs were crucial. They lost four

important wickets one after the other. In short, the match was even till the last over in which

the batting side was to get only nine runs and the bowling side was to take only one wicket

to win the match.

4. Every ball created suspense and excitement among the crowd. At the last ball, only two runs

were required. The batsman hit a boundary and the Pak Fighters Club Multan won the match.

Some excited spectators ran towards the winning team, some started leaving and some kept

sitting to see the prize distribution ceremony.

It’s not so important who starts the game but who finishes it
