Male Female

Well, in my entire life, I have made several types of decisions, but today I would like to talk about a decision that changed my life. Last year, I completed my graduation. After that, I went with my friends to the outdoor, especially Morali Chad Coliseum field, and we played cricket. I took 14 balls to score 86 runs, which is one of the highest scores in the match. We were targeting a score of 185 runs against the opposing team in 12 overs, which was a significant challenge. When I was batting, I felt over the moon because it was the first time for me to achieve such a score. My strike rate was around 389, which is memorable for me. After we completed the game, we won by 25 runs, which was a great achievement for my team. At that moment, I made a decision. I told my parents that I wanted to pursue cricket at a higher level, which was very important for me because I felt great about it. My father attended BKSP, and I joined this cricket team. Right now, I am a cricketer, playing in the first division, select division, and Dhaka division, which is a dream for every cricketer. I believe that if I had not made this decision, I would not be playing cricket today. That's all.
