The only thing I am remotely capable of is fielding and any muppet can do that.
Today, the problem was, the ball was flying at me at such speeds I simply couldn't hit it. I tried to have a good stance and all that so that I could give it a good clonk but they bowled so fast I could't hit the ball?
I just don't know what to do, obviously I am in over my head and today was our only practice session. I was rubbish basically, so there must be some tips I can have to help me somehow to at least defend my wicket.
(Also; and forgive me for my forthrightness here, if you are thinking to make a joke or leave a stupid comment of some kind, please don't bother because this is serious stuff here and I felt so embarassed I don't want to take anymore.)

Haha, don't feel embarrased, your a girl and English. You're not supposed to be able to play cricket!
How bad do you think it is growing up as a male in
Australia, and
then being bad at cricket!
Sorry about your ankle.
