About this word search

Many Kiwi kids learn cricket in the backyard or at the beach, with a plastic bat and a tennis ball. Bat, ball and wicket are the first words they hear.

The grid is ten by ten and the words run across and down only. Wicket and stumps are the longest at six letters. Bat, run, six and out have three each. Bowl and ball both start with B, so look at the second letter.

Go outside and bowl a ball for every word you found.
