I was treated like
a pearl cause I was
the only girl
As time passed
I started to blend
in with the boys
lost my softness
and threw away all
my toys

I was seven when I
held the fine wood bat
for the first time
I was eleven when
I played my first
match and took
a catch that made my
mates proud

My love for cricket
grew even deeper
when I got my wicket

Started to bowl
bat and field  
took the role as
captain and went
with the lead

It is engraved in my
veins and forever
it'll stay remain
