Dear Tanjiro, I hope you are doing well. I am writing to tell you about the cricket match which was held between
team

team
Strawberry

weekend. I am very happy to let you know that our
team
Mango won the cricket match. It was a very close match full of suspense till the
last
ball. The cricket match started with the toss ,

our

didn't win the toss. The opposite
team
Strawberry
elected to bat first and their talented openers started the game with a very high run rate. Our bowlers were unable to dismiss the opposite
team

As a result

team
Strawberry
set a very high score. Later, it was our turn to bat and shockingly our openers were dismissed by
team
Strawberry
bowlers in the fifth over itself. We thought we lost the match, but
then
suddenly our
team
all-rounder Zenitsu scored more runs in a few balls which made us win the match. All the
team
members including me were very happy because we outperformed the other
team
.
Although
I was happy, I missed your presence and if you had been there I would have enjoyed the match even more. I hope you recover and join the
team
soon. Yours lovingly, Sahithi
