The Game I like best

Of all the games, I like volley ball the most. I have played it from my very childhood and now I have a love for it. Pt. Kishore Chand is in charge of our volley ball team and he likes my play very much. He has made me the captain of the team. So I ask other hockey players also to join my team. I have good reason for it.

The game of volley ball does not cost much. A sixty feet long and thirty feet broad play ground is sufficient for this game. A net is stretched out onto wooden poles in the middle. The poles are firmly fixed in the ground, lest they should fall down with a slight movement and loosen the net. The volley ball which we use contains a rubber bladder. The air is pumped into the bladder and when it is inflated, we faster its top with a leather string.

Only twelve players take part in this game. Six players play on each side. They go on changing places from time to time so that everyone should get a chance to exercise his limbs completely. It is true that only hands are used in this game but when one jumps, all other limbs and muscles are also brought into play.

When the ball does not drop in a few turns, everyone tries one’s utmost to keep up the ball as long as possible in air. It creates a sort of keen competition among the players. They eyes follow the ball and their hands are ready to strike it back. If the ball remains for some time in the air, it sends thrills of joy into our hearts. I wonder if excitement and laughter of this kind could be enjoyed in other games also.

Again hockey and foot ball players always complain of ankle sprains, dizziness, nasty falls and injuries. These are so dangerous games that they even break some bone or injure an eye. It is just for these reasons that I have selected the game of volley ball. I am not afraid of injuries, but if we can avoid of the volley ball eleven?

The Game I like Best

Cricket is my favourite game. It is the game I like the most. It is an international game and is quite often shown on television. Many cricket teams come from abroad to play matches in India and the Indian  teams go abroad to play against foreign countries.

The most important nations playing cricket are England. Australia, West Indies, India, Sri Lanka and Pakistan. When I grow up, I also hope a become a great cricketer and represent  India against foreign cricketers at home and abroad. That is the greatest ambition of my life.

I am never good at books but I am very good at cricket. My teachers often take me to task for not devoting myself to studies and my parents are angry for not burning the midnight oil for doing well in the examinations but it is none of my ambition to become a book- worm. My only ambition in life is to become a great cricketer. Once I become a star cricketer, I am sure that my parents and my teachers will be proud of my success in the world of cricket. I want to shine as a star in the firmament of the sporting world. I want my name to be written in golden letters in history books of cricket and the great cricketers. I want to die as Bradman, the great English Cricketer.

My greatest pleasure is to keep away from the classes and spend the days , from dawn to dusk, on the cricket field. Cricket is whole day  game and you can spend many hours in playing cricket. It lasts longer than a film show. When great Test Matches are held at important cities of India, Like Delhi, Bombay, Calcutta and Madras, people buy  their tickets in advance and carry their lunch boxes with them. I wish I were one of the Test Cricket Players watched by the thousands of people on the playground and millions of people on television around the world. One  day I am sure that I will achieve that eminence.      

In other sports on e can be either a spectator or an actor. In cricket one can be both at the same time. When others are batting, you watch.

When your turn comes, you become the actor on whom the thousands of eyes are directed. He is then the idol of the admiring crowds. In this manner one can see cricket in two ways as actor and spectator. He can see the crowds from the player’s point of view as well as from the spectator’s angle of vision. 

In other games the whole team goes into action in team spirit and it is the team spirit which makes the victory possible. In cricket both team sprite an individual performance  are counted. One may hit a brilliant century even when the cricket team fails to win the match as a whole, in cricket the game moves on slowly and one can watch the bowlers and batsmen in action and out of action. Their every move is recorded on the retains of millions of eyes.

Cricket is very popular and very fashionable game in India. You find urchins playing cricket in the street corners and in offside plains, parks, gardens and meadows. Cricket is the talk of the town in clubs and restaurants, both friends and foes. Men like Sunil Gavakar and Bradman are immortal stars of the Cricket heavens and their glory will never fade from the earth. They will always shine like planets in the midnight sky.
