The world didn't hesitate to vocalise the fact that they didn't appreciate the management's decision of benching Kuldeep Yadav. They didn't hesitate to let the captain know that they were not happy with his decision. This India Vs England series were very important for them and a good bowler like him shouldn't be serving drinks. There were people who said that the captain and the management were weaving conspiracies against the young lads cricketing career. The captain was asked about this over and over during press meets. Not just the world his friends and childhood coaches were questioning this decision. Some went as far as calling him 'expensive water boy'. The captain had explained his decision over and over again, but the balloon heads were in the mood of making this whole thing a daily soap with him as the villain and Kuldeep as the damsel in distress.
Vi had spoken to his Kuliya about this and explained his reasoning perfectly and his Kuliya supported him in this decision. But reading all this criticism he couldn't help but make his way to his kiddo with a very worried expression. The criticism was not affecting him as he had turned a blind eye towards them, by now he has built a thick skin to these yapping baboons. But he was worried about his kiddo and how he must have been taking this whole ordeal. He knew his kiddo needed him, so he did what he does the best and entered his room screaming "Kulie mere pyare Kuliye kya kar raha hai bacha."
Kuldeep was in his room glaring at his phone as if it was his worst enemy. The ever so calm and innocent Kuliya was pissed. No not like I'm angry on you pissed, it was like Virat and Yuvi had possessed him. He wanted to break everyone's heads and had a valid reason to be pissed at the world. He sat there thinking how dare they say this about his Bhaiya and yeh bakwas kya hai? his bhaiya is smarter than all these mad baboons put together. He trusted his bhaiya and supported his bhaiya's decisions and how dare they say anything against him. He didn't have any problem than why are they crying about it? Why are they making a fuss? And what problem does his ex-coach have against his bhaiya. He respected Kapil sir he taught him a lot, but he didn't like his words and he was going to tell him how it is. He was about to dial the number when his bhaiya came in. Kuliya shot his brother an angry look, he cannot understand how this man stays so energetic even after all this drama.
Vi never saw his ever calm, sweet and innocent kiddo in such nasty mood, was he mad at him for not making him play. He could see fire coming from his eyes, nose, and ears, he looked like a volcano ready to burst. Did he agree with these people? Did he hate him? His mind was racing through million scenarios per millisecond. He can deal with anything but the thought of his kids being angry with or hate him is his worst nightmare. He quickly rushed to him pulling him in a tight hug he asked "what happened Kuliya why are you looking like this? Why are you angry? Someone said anything to you bacha tell me I'll personally break their bones. Tell me what's wrong? Did anyone hurt you?" Vi kept on ranting and firing questions like new year's fireworks one after the other. Pulling away Kuliya nodded no but Vi was on an emotional roller coaster and didn't intend on stopping anytime soon. Him pulling away from the hug made Vi ramble even more "did I do something wrong? Are you mad at me? Tell me Kuliya kya hua hai?"
Kuliya did what he is famous for he hugged his brother tighter stopping him rambling and calming him down. The anger that was bubbling inside him calmed down in the same speed, both found peace in each other's arms. Kuliya was the first one to speak "I'm sorry bhaiya pata nahi Kapil sir ko kya hua kuch bhi bhol rahe hai. I was going to call him and tell him to not speak this type of rubbish ever again. Specially if he doesn't know the real reasons. He doesn't have any rights to question you and you don't have to answer to anyone." Vi understood that his kiddo was upset about everything that has been spoken against him by people who are close to him. Snatching Kuliyas phone from him he said "you are not doing anything like that. He is your coach bacha he cares for you. He feels the need to protect you." Sighing he wrapped his hand around Kuliyas shoulder he continued "if I was in his place, I would probably do the same or even worse. If I felt someone is not treating any of my kiddos right, I will fight for them, voice out my thoughts about it. He did what he felt must be done to protect you and to make sure you get what you deserve. He wants you to be successful and he did everything because he loves you. He spoke out to the media because he knew with their help his words would reach out to more people and you will get more support. Which will help put pressure on the management to include you in more important matches, but I think he didn't expect trolling."
Kuliya knew his bhaiya was saying the truth but was still sceptical. He doesn't appreciate people bad mouthing his bhaiya or anyone from his chosen family. "but bhaiya he needs to apologise to you for what he said." saying this Kuliya tried snatching his phone back. He wouldn't sit here without giving his coach a piece of his mind. Vi wasn't sure who possessed his ever sweet Kuliya. The things this social media zombies do to his kiddos minds, he had enough of it already. He doesn't want any of them being social media baits anymore. Sighing he tried placating his Kuliya and made a deal with him. He personally spoke to Kapil Panday explaining the reason to why Kuliya was not in the playing XI and promised him he will soon see Kuliya on the field. All this while Kuliya sat and heard them speak, at the end of this conversation he was back to his happy self.
Vi never understood one thing about his kiddos, it seems like the things that affect them the most are things that are related to him. Like today one of his kiddos was ready to fight for him to the man who taught him the C of cricket carving him into the player he is today. He always wondered why his kiddos love him so much, did he really deserve so much love and respect from them. The love and respect they shower on him is so overwhelming. He wanted to just scream at the world, critics, ex-colleagues and insta meme pages who say that his team doesn't support him like the previous teams have supported their captain, who say that the team is divided, who say that everyone plays selfishly. He wanted to scream "in your faces Ben Stokes" from the top of the Everest. They don't know nor will they ever understand the bond they share is or maybe is even stronger than the bonds the previous teams share. He doesn't feel the need to explain their relationship to others for he knows if the whole world turns against him these men his kiddos will be standing strong by his side. For they are not just his teammates, colleagues, friends, brothers, family, they are more than that to him. For their brotherhood is made from love and moulded with the heat of hard work and trust. For something so strong cannot be destroyed by the wildest inferno. It's them against the world.
