ICT was gathered at the ground for the practice session. The team was practicing and having fun with each other. It was a scene to watch as Rishu and Harry were always cracking up jokes making the entire team howl with laughters. 

Shubman and Siraj were in their own world talking about the upcoming match, Jaddu and surya were possibly teaming up and discussing their next prank victim. Rohit and coach were talking about the possible strategies for the next match.

The atmosphere was chilly and windy, with joy and laughter surrounding them. Rohit was watching everyone with a smile on his face, but a quick frown took upon him as he saw Virat looking rather gloomy, than his cheerful self. 

Rohit made his way to Virat, concern evident in his eyes, "Vi, Sab theek hai? Are you ok." he asked with genuine worry in his voice.

Virat, attempting to hide his discomfort with a forced smile, nodded. "Bas thoda thak gaya hu, Ro. I'm okay."

Rohit however wasn't convinced. He decided to observe Virat from a distance during practice, sensing that his friend might be hiding something. He saw Virat, usually the epitome of energy, holding back a grimace after every shot. This wasn't just tiredness; something was definitely wrong. 

VIRAT POV

I awoke to a dull pain in my head and groaned, hoping it didn't get worse as I had a long day ahead of me. I rolled over as I heard my phone ringing. It was Nush video calling me, I picked up hoping she wouldn't notice the discomfort. 

Nush: Hey, are you ok? U r looking so dull, Vi is everything fine?

Anushka started rambling as soon as she saw Virat's tired eyes. 

Virat: Calm down nushkie, calm down. It's nothing I'm ok, just a bit tired. 

Nush: You sure vi?

Virat: yes yes, now I'll go, practice starts soon. I love you, I'll call you later ok.

Nush: Alright,  but promise me you'll take care. I love you too, call me later bub.

They exchange a loving smile before ending the call.

Virat wanted to join the team for practice even though he was feeling really sick. As he got up from the bed, the room felt a bit wobbly, and he got dizzy, but he held onto the bed to steady himself. He was weak, but he didn't want anyone else to worry so he didn't tell anyone about his increasing headache. He hoped no one would notice it and everything would be okay.

But his all hopes were crushed when Jaddu saw Virat slowly walking trying not to get dizzy again.
"Veer, kya hua aisa kyu dikh raha hai?"Jaddu asked looking at Virat with nothing but concern.
"Kuch nahi Jaddu, thoda thak gaya hu, chal practice ke liye late ho raha." Virat replied hurriedly so Jaddu won't question him further.

Virat joined them, trying hard to focus. But his body was tired, and he felt dizzy again. Rohit was observing all this from afar and knew that Virat was hiding something.

During practice, Virat's body felt more tired with each move. But he didn't give up. He leaned on his bat when practice ended, catching his breath. Shubman saw him and asked him if he was ok.

"Just a bit tired, Shub. I'll be fine," Virat said with a small smile.

Virat was too tired after the practice to even eat lunch, he wanted to inform Rohit that he wasn't feeling well so he was going to his room but Rohit was at the management meeting and would return in the evening.

As Virat reached his room, he sat on the bed and held his head in his hands, tears made their way into his eyes due to the uncontrolled headache. He was feeling extremely cold as well as warm at the same time. He decided it was better if he slept.
