"Look at this, what you have done to yourself Virat . You are going to tell me everything right now, this minute. We have the whole night and you are not sleepy, right?. I'm not sleeping either. And I'll make sure you won't sleep again without unloading you baggage" she ordered, pulling his weak torso out of her arms.
And they were in for a longg night!
---------------------------------------------------------
She sat down with her legs crossed in front of him. He moved closer to her. She wiped his tears.
"Now first, tell me why did they remove you from captaincy just like that" she asked.
"After I gave up the t20 captaincy, they called me. They asked me to step down from ODI captaincy as well. As they wanted a different captain in limited overs and tests. But I told them I'm not ready to step down from ODIs. I'll do it after the world cup. But they had already made up their mind that they were going to sack me. Simply for formality, they called me and asked for my opinion " he explained to her.
"Wait a minute, if they wanted a different captain for limited overs and tests, then why didn't they do it before?" She questioned the logic.
"These are all their stupid excuses Anu. It won't make any sense. You know, they were waiting for this moment. The moment my form dropped, they sacked me. This has nothing to do with different captains. They literally said I failed to win any trophy , they judged me by just 2 tournaments Anu. We were so naive Anu, they all hated me from their core. They just want me to be removed from my position, which threatens their publicity and image.
So ungrateful and cruel they are." Virat huffed in disbelief.
"Who are the 'they' you are referring to" Anushka asked.
"Do you remember that day, you picked up my call. That guy Chetan Mishra is the selector. He is the one who didn't want me. Dude is from Mumbai, He loves his people. The only mistake I made was to be not born in Mumbai" he smiled sarcastically. Anushka gritted her teeth after realising how low people would stoop so low for name and fame.
"Anu I have given my everything to the team. As a player , as a captain, as a batter, as a fielder. I have always given my 110%. It's a team game, I can't win a fucking tournament by myself. Everyone needs to contribute. Last WC was a mess in the finals. The batting collapsed , yet the captain is blamed. How can someone blame the captain for batting collapse? I can't go and guide them to bat!" he complained pinching his forehead.
Anushka was listening to everything patiently. She wanted him to pour his heart out. Only that would help her find some solution for it.
"What happened to your batting Virat? I'm sorry, I didn't talk to you about that because I thought that would make you more upset" she emphasised.
"I don't know.. I don't know what happened. I asked my batting coach, I asked my childhood coach, they all assessed my videos. They said , they don't find any pattern of dismissals. It's all in different ways. Some unlucky outs and many soft dismissals. They are saying like , 99 out of 100 times, I would've hit those balls for boundaries. But at that particular moment something didn't click.. to be honest, even I don't know what's happening with me. Anu it's been about 8 or 9 months since I scored a century. Can you imagine? I used to score 8 or 9 centuries every year. From that to this.....I think...I'm done" he mumbled the last sentence in doubt.
"What!?...you are done? Are you mad Virat. You are not done. This is just a phase, it will go. Give it some time babe." She directed him. After some time, he was looking at her with a frown.
