Cricket
Cricket is a sport played with 11 people on a pitch. It involves a bowler who bowls the ball, which the batsman then hits and hopefully then scores a run. A fielder then picks up the ball and either throws it to the bowler or the wicket keeper.
Cricket is a world wide played sport. Many countries around the world now take part in either friendly matches or in competitions such as the oneday internatnional one or the 20 overs a side one. When you win tournaments, points are added to your team and you may go up in the rankings table.
Often people go on cricket tours to certain countries. If they do this, then they play not only the country’s team, but also some of the country’s not quite internatnional teams. For example if a team went on tour to England, then they would also play Cantebury and other Counties like Leicester.
Schools also play cricket aswell as clubs. Our school plays many cricketing fixtures against other scools. I also play for a club called Oxford Downs. Cricket is usually played in the summer ,and at school, in the summer term.
I play a lot of cricket and I would strongly advise you to, as it is a great sport.

The deadly cloud
First you see it,
a swirling mist of doom.
Then you hear their cries
those soldiers consumed by death
what should I do?
March forth to a misty death,
or back to a coward's death?
Soon you smell it,
the rancid churning cloud.
The odours of a thousand men,
caught in its' damp and deadly grip.
Now you know you can't escape
the cold,gloomy,pointless end,
suffered by so many before you.
finally you feel it,
the debris of the cloud of death.
Peppers you with stones, bullets and rocks,
with legs, feet and arms and hands,
and worst of all, the eyes and ears,
of those who went before,
keeping their eternal watchon the victims of the cloud.
