Hello friends,
I'm going to talk about cricket which is the most popular sport in India and the Indian team. First of all, the 27th october we (the European section students) were assembled in our school to play cricket which was organised by our English teachers mme François and mme Mathis. The game is quite simple, it is played between two teams of 11 players, first the match is started with a toss and the captain who wins the toss will choose to bat or bowl. The teams which bats first will try to put a big total on the board and after that the other team will try to chase that score within the limited overs. The Indian team, led by M.S Dhoni, has been doing well in the international cricket in the last 3 years: they became the world n01 in test and the world n02 in ODI's and they won the 2007 t20 world cup. Sachin Tendulkar is India's legend player who is the first cricketer in the world to have played 20 years of cricket and he is the first man in the planet to have scored a double hundred in ODI, he has lots of unbreakable records. The other senior players remaining in the test squad are Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman who have some unbelievable records too. But now there are some brillant youngsters like Murali Vijay and Suresh Raina who are growing well.
Hope that they do well in the upcoming 2011 world cup and they become the world n01 in ODI's too.
