19.5 overs in and they were 132/7. Last ball was being bowled by the captain.
And, Batsman was on strike.
It was overpitcged and slammed straight down the ground getting a four.
Our captain ended his 4 overs with 2/27.
I got two catches in total.
One was a top edge, And the other one was an edge flying past me which i Luckily caught.
That ended the game and we were on top, They scored 136/7, in response to our 180/4.
And, so we shook hands in the name of sportsmanship and left the ground.
...
"Well Played boys, It was an excellent performance especially from Ji yeong and GYeong. I'm glad i chose you two in the team."
"The bowling was impeccable, Tight lines and lengths. There's definately potential in you lot but don't you dare get conceited over this win because we weren't even in a stage to reach a 100 by the 3rd over. It's just the beginning guys. Play well. Captain you can take over."
"Yes... Thank You, Let me start off by saying this. Many of you have done excellently but many of you, especially the batting department have way more to be desired.
But, i won't discourage you based on just 1 match. Keep in mind what you did wrong and try to improve in it. As the saying goes, you are never too good to learn more or something like that. Anyway, You are dispersed you may leave. Get on the buses and it'll drop you home."
It was around 11:30 in the evening right now and that was why i was worried since there would be no Busses present at this time.
But, I'm glad to understand that We get a means of transportation when busses aren't available at this time.
...
And so i was back home after a long journey.
1 Got home by 12:30, and was very exhausted as i got into the house.
My house, wasn't all that great. it was a 2 bedroom house.
It was a normal house, I had a sister, A mother and a father.
"I'm home."
I always feel weird when i say that because I've never said that to my parents back home whenever i came back from somewhere.
they were all currently sitting in the dining table waiting for me.
The man with Dark Blue hair and unshaved beard is my father, Gi yeong.
"Welcome back."
He's a bit exhausted because of his work environment.
He's being treated like a slave and he isn't even being compensated peoperly but still hasn't left his job because he has to take care of my sister's College education.
"You are late."
This lil cute munchkin is my sister, Sei Yeonga women with dark blue hair like my father and she's 18 years old and has just recently joined college.
"Ahhaha, It's not my fault the match went on for this long."
"Aah... you are finally back. I was so worried."
This women, is my mother. Or rather Step mother. My real Mother is divorced and is living alone somewhere.
And no none of them cheated, It was mutual.
My lil sister here is actually This women's daughter and not my father's.
Apparently, Her husband also looks like my father. Dark blue hair and a brask appearence.
She fell for him when she came to work in his office.
Her actual husband, died in the army and she's currently working she's not into my father because of some money matter.
Honestly we are pretty darn poor.
so i don't know why she'd chose him if she really wanted money. So, none of that is true in this case.
She just fell for my father and after that brutal Divorce my father also wanted some kind of distraction from his deeper pits of despair.
Leading him towards suicide. If it weren't for her... he'd have probably died.
but still, he isn't in the best of conditions due to his work pressure.
Taking care of the house isn't easy.
Maube if i got an actual job instead of doing this... Maybe, things would be easier.
But than again... I'll not give up on this dream.
It's the only dream I have. The only reason why I'm clinging onto life.
Which i once considered unnecessary.
...
"Congratulations."
"What? What's going on?"
I was surprised at the sudden surprise as i asked in a hurry.
"Congratulations on scoring a 100."
"Huh? How did you know that?"
I Don't remember telling them i scored a hundred.
Heck i Don't even remember explaining to them what a 100 is.
so, how did they?
"Aah, you Don't know? Your matches are broadcasted live on This website."
Huh? Seriously??
Ny matches are being watched? That makes me unusually nervous and uncomfortable.
Enouch to make me wanna crawl into a ball.
Really? Even broadcasting? That means it costs even more. Are these people sure about wasting so much money?
"Haha... Thanks."
I said awkwardly not knowing what else to say.
"I always thought you were unreliable. Look at you, Playing like a pro champ."
That's unexpected praise from this devil.
If this devil praised me that means...
"Well played."
I felt my lips curl up as i heard her say that into a nasty grin.
But, i held myself back because i didn't wanna look like a criminal.
"Thanks."
It sure is awkward.
"So when's the party?"
Shamelessly asked the devil child.
Can you please shut up for a moment, we were having a moment there.
"What Party?"
I asked in an annoyed manner, To clearly show her that I'm displeased for disturbing our moment.
"You scored a centuary? Doesn't that amount for a party?"
"This is Domestic cricket. Scoring hundreds here should be child's play no matter the format. I'll throw a party if i win the final but until than. I'm sorry."
"Stingy."
She said as she pouted. Damn Stop acting so cute, It'll make me wanna spend my entire savings on you.
Too bad, I'd have actually done it if Seo were the one acting like that.
Too bad for you, Bit-h.
