Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to talk about this topic. Yeah, I'm going to talk about an activity I did when I was young. I enjoyed many free time activities when I was young, such as playing hard and watching cartoons and TV shows. But here, I'd like to talk about playing cricket. There was a handball ground in front of my house, and all the children of the neighborhood used to play in the ground. We made a team of 10 and started playing cricket. I remember I was in 7th grade at the time. Well, we all pooled in some money from our pockets and bought a pre-owned cricket kit. I used to keep that kit in my home. We used to play for one hour after school every day. I remember I used to finish my homework quickly in the evening so that I could go and play cricket. If I didn't finish my homework, my mother would not allow me to go and play. It was the same with all the other friends. So, in fact, the game brought some discipline in our lives. Our parents had no problems with us playing as long as we didn't disrupt the neighbors. I remember once I hit a six and broke one of my neighbor's windows, and my father had to pay for the damage. After that, we made a point not to be so reckless. This activity went on for about two years. After that, construction started in that area, and they began building houses over there, so we couldn't play anymore over there. But I still remember how much fun we had then. On Sundays, we used to spend the whole day playing cricket there. The scorching heat and the thrill of the game didn't deter us as a family. And where is the place where children can get in any ground and reminisce about those good old days of my childhood?
