Cricket

Empire - імперія

Amateur – аматор, самоучка

To hurt – завдавати болю

Cricket is an English game. It is a difficult game and is loved by mane people, but

others are bored by it. Some games go on for five days. It is played in many countries

which were once a part of the British Empire, but nowhere else.

There are amateur cricket clubs all over England, but there is a big difference

between an amateur cricketer and a professional one. The amateur cricketer cannot

get money for the game (he is not paid). The professional cricketer has a higher level.

He has to learn many kinds of skills. He has to be an athlete, to run fast, jump and

turn like a gymnast. He must be patient, and must not let the other players be

dishonest with him.

Above all, he has to be very brave. This is what one professional cricketer said after

being hit on the head with a ball, “Cricket is hard, it hurts, It takes a special sort of

person to be good at it. But we don’t want the danger to be taken out of the game.”

You should know – it took him eight month to recover after it)
