My favourite game is cricket,
We play with a wicket.
There are three stumps,
The bat has a bump.
The other side is flat,
That makes it a bat.
You get a ball to hit,
You can hit or miss it.
If the ball is caught,
The batsman is out.
You hit and you run,
This is how you score a run.
You can score a four,
Or don't run if you are not sure.
If you want to score a six,
You have to learn the tricks.
