This is a rave about my cricket!

I play for the under 12 side of Marist Brothers Gold in Lismore.

I am a bowler and wicket-keeper. (Not a very good combination!) I have to switch with another wicket keeper at the 13 over mark.

We only have 25 overs a side in our game,so out team usually gets around 60 runs.

We have played 2 games this season so far, and we have won both of them comfortably, fielding first both times.

The first time I batted, I got out for 1 run because the other team was sledging, and the second time I got out for 2 runs. I have a average of 1.5 runs!

For some reason my coach wants to keep me in number 3 batting position.

We have 12 people in our team, but nearly always someone doesn’t turn up, so we have the exact amount of time.

I have a Grey-Nicolls Fusion Bat (Size 6), Slazenger V900 Fury batting gloves, Slazenger 389V Batting Pads, Buffalo Wicket-Keeping gloves, Albion Helmet, and a Grey-Nicolls box.

The first game we played, ended with me getting 3 wickets, from getting a catch in Wickie, a catch in slips, and a caught and bowled with me bowling.

In the second game I scored no wickets.

Anyway, I hope you have enjoyed my random rave about my cricket.
