उत्तर
My favourite sports event - Cricket
My favourite sport is cricket, one of the most popular games in India. I am interested in one-day matches, test matches and twenty-twenty matches. The just-concluded World Cup showed how a team which shows consistency, determination and dedication can emerge a winner.
I am a member of the school cricket team. I love this game so much that I don't miss even a single practice session. I have won several inter-school competitions along with other members of my team. On two occasions, I have also won the 'Man of the Match' award. I excel in batting and I am very good in fielding too.
Playing cricket has developed qualities of hard work, determination and team spirit in me. I would like to scale the heights achieved by my favourite cricketer Sachin Tendulkar and become a world-class player. I have a long way to go but I am sure I will excel in my favourite sport.
