You decide to write to him in hospital, telling him about the match. Write a letter to your friend. In your letter, tell him which team won describe the conditions on the day say how you felt about the match
Dear Tom,
I’m writing
this
letter to tell you about the cricket match that happened last
weekend at Wimbley stadium. I really felt that your absence from the team made us really sorry for how much you were excited to play the game. I need to inform you that our team Newton State has won the match with an additional man of the series cup also
.
The day was perfect with sunny weather and a clear blue sky with clouds all around. However
, the pitch was in rough condition and the bowler's job made extremely difficult to perform up to the pace, but they managed it very well. Also
, the umpire was too tough sometimes in giving the runs unnecessary for the bowl that was made perfectly.
I really felt grateful that our team performed through the match with extraordinary skills taken by the members. Furthermore
, it make me a captain that all our teammates put their effort to a high level and brought back the history cup to our mainland once again.
I hope you get well soon and just counting on our reunification.
Keep in touch,
Chris.Submitted by bon.joseph on
