Notes About The Poem

SELFIE 2

Avid cricketeer (now armchair) I am
a fast bowler once but still now a fan
'Red' ball real cricket I mean to say
not 'white ball' contrived for a day

A cricket fan and player. Yes the red ball original version is so much better. Unfortunately these days people want a result quickly so the white ball and matches ending in 1 day.
