.... for glory on the hallowed turf. The fielding team take to the field, using as much of the soft, green grass as the ever-wise skipper will allow them.
Then come the batsmen. They breathe in the atmosphere as they stride towards the sacred pitch glancing only briefly at the hustling Saturday sport crowd, the carrot-topped buildings and the trees swaying in the breeze. They stoop to inspect the brown pitch, touching the cracks to find out where the enemies missile will strike.

The fact that CHI can be personalized as well as shared by the community may explain the Igbo acceptance and affinity for the Christian religion. Also, there are many names in the Igbo culture that begin with CHI. For example, my niece’s name is Chinyere, which means God’s gift.
