My favourite sport
View(s):My favourite sport is cricket.
Today it is the most popular game in Sri Lanka and other countries.
I like cricket due to many reasons. When we play cricket we spend a lot of time in the open air. This is extremely good for our health. We get a lot of
exercise when we play cricket. We need exercise for the healthy growth of the body. Sports are useful in various ways. Through sports, we learn to accept both victory and defeat alike. This makes us responsible citizens.
Cricket also teaches us many good moral values. Cricket has many shots. They are front foot drive, pull shot, cut shot, back foot drive and Dill scoop.
My favourite shot is the front foot drive and my favourite cricketer is Kumar Sangakkara.
Cricket is my life and I play cricket all the time. My goal is to be a cricketer and one day I like to play for the Sri Lankan team.
