Everybody has played the gully cricket at least once in their life. You can always see 5 to 10 boys playing cricket around you on the streets or in any small park or in any empty farm. With so much of energy and passion they play this game. Am trying to present what gully cricket is all about.
“A cricket without umpire on field.”
Bricks and tyre being the stumps.
A squad full of all-rounders
Teams without Captain"... (Literally everyone is captain.)
That’s ‘The Gully Cricket.’
"How many players to play?"
You never bother about that.
"Who will keep the wickets?".."Who will field where?"
You gotta never think about that.'
That’s ‘The Gully Cricket.’
When a batsman got out.
Everyone jumps to snatch the bat.
When an over ends,
Everyone runs to ball the next.
No one is the best batsman,no one is the best bowler.
'Only the age and seniority matters.'
That’s ‘The Gully Cricket.’
The best ever sledging you can see,
The best ever magical innings you can see,
The best ever run-outs you can see.
Best ever rules of cricket you can see.
That’s ‘The Gully Cricket.’
'Rules changes like season, as the senior batsmen got out.'
'The catches inside the boundary became sixes sometimes.'
"The passion to win is so high,
that batsman can review without DRS...
Can bat throughout the innings,
Even after getting out so many times."
That’s ‘The Gully Cricket.’
Substitution of good player in place of worst,
when the team needed the most.
There’s no injury on field,
But you cry every evening at home.( because of father's anger😜)
You wake up everyday with same energy,
Gather in field and same rules continue everyday.
That’s ‘The Gully Cricket.’
