"The remaining batsman have been divided based on merit, there are people who didn't get any and there are people who have proven themselves enough.
but weren't better than the 5 names given above, Nonetheless i wish you all good luck."
wait?? Was i seriously not fhosen?
I have a better average on all the formats, which is better than all the other players... so why??
Let's calm down, there must be a catch.
"Now onto the bowlers,
Alan Kim, getting the highest wickets will obviously be the top priority
With 123 wickets in T20, 116 in 50 overs & 72 wickets in Test."
"No 2, Tae Yang with 78 wickets in T20, 62 in 50 overs and 41 in Tests."

"No 5, Man Shik with 82 Wickets in t20, 34 in 50 over and 27 in test.
These are the 5 bowlers to be chosen as the holders of the A Grade Central contract."
Well obviously i wouldn't get selected for my bowling...
What i am is a batsman.
"Onto the All Rounders,
No 1, G Yeong, With a batting average and bowling figures of 42/58 (T20), 62/48 (50 over) & 62/42 (Test) A fast bowling All rounder.

He's an excellent Left arm spinner who'll chip in whenever necessary and will do excellent bowling aswell.
That will be the all rounders."
That's it? My... name never came in...
Wait... i forgot...
"Onto the last Catagory Wicketkeepers.
Our Champion wicket keeper who has a record of taking wickets from behind the wicket.
Ji Yeong, A batting average of 38 in t20, 89 in 50 overs and 75 in Tests.
He has taken as many as 180 catches in t20, 97 in 50 over & 62 Catches in test.
He has great stumping records aswell with an average stumping per match of around 0.7."
Well... that's some unnecessary praises honestly...
I'm not that great haha...
"And the last player of the 15 man squad is... Han Jae."
...
"Now that i have announced the 15 member squad and the remaining Important things, everyone else but the 11 may leave."
The Head said, as everyone bid each other farewell and left the academy.
It was nice knowing them all... I'm going to miss em...
Feels kinda lonely, watching them leave...
But, I'm also excited... about what's to come.
"Now that everyone has left... let me get this straight, You all will be playing for Korea... For the Korean cricket starting the beginning of next Month."
Beginning of next month? If she's saying this so confidently, It must mean that she knows the schedule.
"You will have a 3 match series against 3 different teams. Japan, france & Sweden."
"The dates are given below, You'll play against Japan next Month in Korea itself but we'll be Travelling to UAE to play 3 matches against France & Will have a 3 match series against Sweden right here in Korea Again."
That means there are about 9 matches.
For the next 2 months...
We have played 15 matches for 1 month so we have enough stamina to play 9 in 2 months.
"Though... this is all but the beginning, it's a practice for the Asia cup qualifiers 2 months later & T20 WorldCup Qualifiers which will be held this August which is 4 months from now. So, be ready to face various challenges because the next 1 year of your lives won't be pretty."
...
That... was our farewell Message from our beloved Head of the cricket department.
I never got to meet my mother in the academy.
My Stepmom is now a successful Actor with the amount of fans she has now.
My step sister has started working which is even great.
She earns more than my father.
And, now i officially earn more than my father aswell.
I wonder what he's thinking since everyone is earning more than him.
...
Finally, I'm back home.
Right now... there's no body to greet me so i just sat there with some lunch i bought for myself.
My parents don't know that I'll be back today... They are probably thinking i'd be back 1 Month from now.
So, It'd be a good surprise.
*Ting*
Ooh, It's Mary...
Also, my relationship with Mary has been pretty good aswell.
Obviously i wouldn't date her, considering she's way outta my leage, I just Don't want her to be tainted hy my filth.
Who am i kidding... there's no way she'd be interested in me in the first place anyway, lol.
