Hi all! Try and use any of these idioms in a sentence below and you can test your cricket vocabulary here www.englishclub.com/vocabulary/sports-cricket-quiz-vocab.htm SHARE the video if you love it and please get in touch if you are interested in translating the subtitles into your language. :)
1. To have had a good innings - to have had a long and fulfilling life or career. I was really sad when my grandfather passed away, but he was 95, so he had a good innings. 2. Be cricket - a way to describe something being fair and just. It was really not cricket how she got fired at the last minute like that, I can’t believe management would behave like that. 3. To hit/knock someone for six - something that really shocks or upsets someone. When Leila said she was leaving Love English it really knocked me for six! 4. To be bowled over - something that shocks, impresses or overwhelms. I was bowled over by my pay rise! 5. To be on a sticky wicket - an awkward, difficult or precarious situation. I’m on a sticky wicket here, I don’t feel like I am in a safe situation. 6. To be stumped - to be confused or to have no idea about how to fix/ solve something. Many students feel stumped when it comes to the third conditional. 7. To do something off your own bat - to decide to do something yourself rather than being told to do it. Leila went to the gym off her own bat - for once her boyfriend did not have to push her into going. 8. To catch someone out - to find out that someone has done something wrong - to catch them in the act of this. I caught out my boyfriend, he was cheating and my friend took a photo. 9. To throw someone a googly - to present someone with a question, situation, or piece of information that is surprising and unexpected. Dave really threw Jane a googly when he said that he wanted to go on a date with her. 10. To be on the back foot - to be in a disadvantaged or weaker position. Liverpool’s early goal put Manchester United on the back foot. England’s high run rate put Australia on the back foot.
hey sabrah thank you a lot .I honor you both a lot as you are so good and nice teachers .I learn many things from your videos.So happy about you !! If you can , Can you give another video for listening lessons?
Just when you think Sabrah’s lessons can’t be any better she takes it up a notch!! I like this idea Queen Sabrah, phrasal verbs are endless so you can explain us phrasal verbs for specific topics such as sports , movies , food , animals and so on . Cricket 🏏 is not my cup of tea . I would try even Quidditch for my Queen Sabrah though . She’s the only kind of her.
Hello my sweetie! ❤️ thanks so much as always for your kind compliments! What is your favourite sport? Maybe I could make a video about vocabulary related to that ? I would like to see you try quidditch 😂💕
Words cannot describe how grateful I am for your lovely lessons. I have not ever known those idiom ! They are mine, now. Ti auguro una bellissima giornata. My score is 100% out of 100, I am a lucky boy. A
Thank you very much. I know them of these, thankfully. Played cricket in school and at university, but was not good enough to go further. Love the game and watch live and TV every summer (in Australia that is). We use all these idioms down here too. One of my lifetime aims is to watch a game in England. An idiom used down here for a cricket-fan, more of a cricket-fanatic is to call someone a "cricket tragic". "He watches every game he can, he's a real cricket tragic." Australia is on top of the rankings for now, but the CWC19 finals are 22 days away so anything is possible.
Yes Australia is playing very well! It will be the ashes soon! Thanks for teaching me that idiom 😊 That is funny 😂 Best of luck to your team! Please share this video if you loved it 😊💕
Aaah Sabrah you took me by surprise w/ the lesson no 3 , you gave the example "Leila was leaving Love English " n I thought to myself " why " , finally you said it was just an example for the lesson 😀 Thanks anyway for your hard effort to make this vid lesson... welldone .
Hi Sebra I would like to spend fortnight in a british Institute. Can you recommend any or where find out information and the offer for that? Cheers davide
I haven't the faintest idea what the cricket players do when they play. It is unknown sport in Poland. We only know that this sport exists 🙈 Great lesson Sabrah 🌹😊 There is lots of vocabulary to memorise 🤓 'To be on a sticky wicket' is a greatest one 😎 Greetings Sabrah 💖🇬🇧 P.S. the hair 💞👀👱♀️😍
You look stunning. I would like to take the C1 of Cambridge next year, do you think I will succeed?? Thanks a lot for this new lesson, you really are helpful. Kisses :)
I have a questions! why verbs such as look, listen, etc have a preposition???? Examples: I listen "to" the radio everyday./ I'm looking "at" the tree. Why!??? Are they phrasal verbs too?
Hi Sabrah, thanks a bunch, its really very informative and interesting, any way I support India and believe we are capable for win the cup , waiting for another lesson soon , have a great time , thanks again
Hello Sabrah Maam... My question is about preposition. On Friday afternoon, Naresh Kaluram Bhala (14) and Harshad Vitthal Bhala (7) were with their grandmother on their farm located near the Murbad forest range. While the woman was busy farming, the boys went in search of blackberries. My doubt is about preposition 1)"on" their farm or "in" their farm 2) busy farming or busy "in" farming. please clarify my doubt.
Queen Sabrah,I agree with Fernando.Cricket is not up my alley too but I honestly enjoyed this video.I love this kind of content.I scored 40%.I reckon that this is a fairly good score for me because I am not that keen on cricket.
Haha you are a sweetie ! 😊💕 thanks very much and that is a great score for somebody who does not like cricket! Well done ! 👏🏼👏🏼 wishing you a lovely weekend xx
Hello Sabrah Maam...! Please clarify my doubt. "However, Mr Gove's campaign manager Mel Stride dismissed suggestions there had been a vote-switching operation, saying: "It doesn't seem to me on first observation of this that there has been. The usage of "this, that" and "there" in the above sentence is correct or not. If possible please write the sentence into simple words. This
Nice one, as always, Sabrah. The advent of television has driven the radio commentators to near-extinction, alas. There was a genial poshness to their speech which is very much missed. Incidentally, a young man, especially a cricket buff, whose proposal has been accepted is said to have "bowled his maiden over". Keep smiling. 🍀

Namaste Sabrah, Very good lesson about English idioms for daily use conversation, I am not watching much cricket but your idioms is useful and increase list of idioms. I admire you. My score is 8 out of 10. If possible please check my last homework and guide me. Thank you.
Hi Manish, well done on your score!! Namaste 🙏🏽 you don’t need to be a cricket fan to enjoy this video! These idioms are commonly used by everyone in the UK ! 😊
Mam kindly speaking , you should read History that cricket is not invented in Great Britain , they just gave new form to cricket(which then came into practice widely ) . . Even before English people , Indians used to play another sort of cricket called( gilli danda ) during Mughal reign in India which is the most raw form of modern cricket.
I was bowled over seeing Mary's dance performance. Callie gets stumped when it comes to spending time between her son and office colleagues. The police caught the smugglers out in the downtown. Kate's phone calls at midnight often knocks me for six.
Britain took lots of trainds and huge amount of books articrafts cross crown and traditions since early 15th centuary and cricket comes from one of the never colonized country Ethiopian old Christmas game tried to make up some modification

Hello Sabrah Maam... My question is about preposition.
On Friday afternoon, Naresh Kaluram Bhala (14) and Harshad Vitthal Bhala (7) were with their grandmother on their farm located near the Murbad forest range. While the woman was busy farming, the boys went in search of blackberries.
My doubt is about preposition
1)"on" their farm or "in" their farm
2) busy farming or busy "in" farming.
please clarify my doubt.
Maam, I want reply to my question. Please answer it.
On their farm is correct - in is for when you are more directly inside ‘like in the house’ ‘in the field’ but on is more general 😊
Maam also answer 2nd question.
Why didn't I find this earlier!!! This made me SOOO damn happy!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍 Cheers Sabrah! 😍💯🏴🍻 Huuuge English cricket fan here💃😁
Yay! This makes me really happy!! Please share the videos if you have cricket fan friends ! 😊💕
