Hand Skills
Hands are the terminal part of the human body. We use hands for grasping and holding things. Human hands in primitive time were not developed as they are now. During that, time hands looked like claws, with long and sharp nails. Humans did not use the proper way of their hands. After the evolution of human, we have used our hands in every task. I have decided to use cricket as my hand skill. Cricket is a sport where people have to use his/her hand more often as other sport. It is one of the interesting sport to learn and I had to practice a lot to master it. In cricket, you have to use hands to hold a bat and to bowl a ball.
