Match:

_________________________

‘Look Rana! You are on strike and hence, things rest on you. 5 runs in 2 balls, you can hit it; just go for it buddy.’ Shergill patted his star batsman.

‘No worries Cap, consider us won.’ He had win many earlier for his team, his country. He looked poise for it today as well.

The field was set; spectators were going crazy, chanting their star batsman's name. With the bowler progressing towards him, the temperature was soaring; anything could happen, but they wanted a six.

The ball was an inswinger; he lofted his bat, and missed. The bails were off, the match was lost. The crowd went complete stunned. Despaired, he couldn’t raise his face.

Shergill walked to him, ‘It’s okay Rana, no one’s perfect. We’re not Gods.’

“You are not a God Rana. You are allowed to err, especially when one such, can earn you a penthouse in Madrid.” The bookie’s words echoed his mind.
