So, Professor Noble was umpiring! Which meant they all got to play! Hanna waited to see what team she'd be on, and headed towards her own head of house once her name was called. They were batting first. Hanna watched as a few people went through and bowled, wicketed, and hit the ball, running between, and the fielders. It was a lot of positions. So many. It was nothing like how she used to play at home. It was just... someone threw the ball, and someone hit the ball. Or tried, at least. There were also a lot more people around. And besides, all three adults seemed to understand cricket.
Hanna gave the claps and whoops of cheer to her team mates as they went, hit the ball, ran, came back. It was interesting to watch everyone, though. How people threw the ball, and also caught it. And the people on the field.
When it was her turn, a flutter of nervous butterflies went through her. Up she went, picking up the bat ready for the ball. She stood in a potion that felt most comfortable and intuitive to her, watching the person throwing the ball. Once they released it, she swung the bat forward, and did a full turn, bat leading the way. There was no ball connecting with the bat. It was behind her.
