5th KAF International Youth Cricket

Malaysia

-By Himanshu Saraswat

I, Himanshu Saraswat and my friend Namish Agarwal along with our coach Anil sir went to Malaysia for a Cricket Tournament.

We traveled to Chennai from Pune. 16 players were selected for the camp in Chennai.

Every morning we used to wake up at 5.30 a.m. and we had our fitness session from 6.15 to 9.30a.m. Then we had net practice .

On July 21^st we left Chennai and reached Malaysia with great enthusiasm and confidence .We also had practice sessions in Malaysia. It was an International Youth Cricket Tournament held between 24 teams from different countries.

We had a practice fled light match with Malaysian team. After defeating many teams we reached the semifinal of the Kaf tournament.

We were very excited about the finals and little bit nervous about the result. The players who were not in the team encouraged and cheered us. We won the Tournament finally.

After winning the Tournament, we had a great Carnival Festival.

Thank you Lakshmi di and Shilpa di for encouraging us to go for the tour and special thanks to Anil sir for guiding us and taking us to the international level of cricket tournament. Thank you all for giving your well wishes and I would also like to thank my parents for sending me there.
