Describe the Scorer's role in poem Six and Out
Answers
Explanation:
Physical games have always been the fascination of boys and girls everywhere in the world. Although sports and physical games have been reduced to one’s living room due to scarcity of playgrounds in cities, children in villages are luckier because they have space to play and enjoy. The poem presents a similar situation where children have been forced to play cricket outside the park because it closed down at 6 and they were Out! The children’s determination shows that space is not a limiting factor for sports. All we need is determination.
