: Sample Answer

Recently, I went to watch an IPL cricket match in the local stadium here in Mumbai, India. I enjoyed the match very much. It was a high voltage match and some of the members of the national and international cricket team took part in it. Unluckily, the team that I supported was defeated by two wickets. This is a nice cue card topic indeed. I am happy to have it in my share. I would like to thank you for this nice topic

The match was held at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. It was set to be held in the evening but the match was delayed for half an hour for rain. The organizers did not want the match to be damaged for the drizzling and thus they started the match about 30 minutes later of the scheduled time. But the stadium was filled with audiences before the time and there was a crowd everywhere. But everything went usually when the match began

The game is memorable to me for some reasons. The topmost reason is that it was my very first experience of watching a cricket match inside a stadium. I was excited so much about the matter. And went there with some of my cousins. It was really a wonderful place to enjoy such a large sporting event. However, it was difficult for me to enjoy the entire match as I could not see the replays and the slow-motion ball deliveries or the LBW replays on the screen as I am habituated to watch them on the television screen

Overall, it was a nice experience for me. Visiting the stadium, the crowd of people, shouts from the supporters and the other matters were attractive. I was too happy to see some of the international players from a close distance
