Cricket, often referred to as a gentleman's game, has found a vibrant home at Good Shepherd B.M.V. It is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams, each consisting of eleven players. The objective is to score runs by hitting the ball and, simultaneously, prevent the opposing team from doing the same. Cricket is a strategic sport that fosters not only physical fitness but also teamwork and strategic thinking.
