A match to remember
(By Sapna/Sridhar)
18th December, Delhi: Our school (ACE Public School) organized an Inter-school Cricket Tournament last Sunday. There were many schools which participated besides our school. Total there were 4 teams. There was the huge crowd of students who had gathered in the playground to cheer their respective teams. First of there were semi-finals. Our school had conveniently reached the final. So it had to be played between our team and DFG Public School. Therefore for the final match, the umpires reached the field. It was the 15-15 over match. First of all there was the toss and fortunately our team won the toss and elected to bat. The opening pair consisted our captain John and other player Kohli. Both of them were very careful in playing the first few deliveries. Then our captain hit a four to open the account. After that both of them looked comfortable on the crease. They kept playing till the 6th over when Kohli was out caught behind. This time the score of our team was 45. Then another batsman came on the crease. It took him a couple of balls to fix his eyes on the ball. Again the innings was as smooth as earlier. After this no player of our team was out and our team finished at 117 at the end of 15th over. Then the players of DFG Public School came for the batting. The beginning of theirs was also good. They struck hard at the ball in all directions. Soon they were 42 without losing any wicket. Then our trump card, Sonu, leg spinner came. His ball was taking a sharp turn. The opponents found it difficult to understand him. And in his very first over, he took a hat trick. Then the match came in to our grip. The opponents could not recover after that. They were all out at the score of 85. In that way, we won the match by 4 wickets and the final of the tournament. Our Principal, who was also the Chief Guest, presented trophy to our team besides other awards such as man of the match, man of series etc. We all enjoyed this cricket match very much.
