World Cup 2019:

The lunch table is a lively, bustling scene. The cricket team is gathered, fresh off a practice session, chatting and laughing between bites of their meal. Room is filled with the the echoes of their laughter and banters. Jassi is seated at one end amidst the sea of noise, casually enjoying his lunch deliberately avoiding the playful glances and exaggerated gestures of his teammates, who are clearly hunting for their next source of amusement.

Just then, the door bursts open with a bang, and Harry, breathless and slightly disheveled, stumbles into the room. His sudden and dramatic entrance gained entire room's attention. Harry's face is flushed with excitement, and he's waving his arms theatrically as if he's about to reveal the punchline to a grand joke.

Oh, my dear beloved Jassi, would you be so kind as to accompany me on a date?" Harry asked forwarding his hand towards Jassi and team gasped.

"Is this the only person he got for mock proposal" Jaddu shook his head disappointed.

"Yeah that too when I am present in this room" Yuzi chimes in with a sigh of exasperation as Jaddu shoots Yuzi a withering look.

"For the last time, Harry, no." Jassi replied dryly, clearly not amused by Harry's antics.

"WAIT IS IT.... IT IS ACTUALLY WHAT I THINK IT IS" Rishabh bolts upright, eyes wide with realization.

"Ro, is this what you have taught the children" Virat said throwing an accusing look pointing a finger at Rohit who was too shocked to comprehend.

"WAIT—WHAT THE FU—H-HARRY, WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE?" Rohit asked bemused.

"Nothing bro I, myself is asking him out for a date and look at him refusing at my face. impudent & impertinent" Harry scoffed as Jassi continued his lunch and Rohit, well he was too traumatized to speak.

"Wait- what? Why I didn't know any of this. How can you hide this thing from me Harry" Rahul asked betrayed.

"Really Rah" Harry gave him mock incredulous look and realization dawned upon him.

"Wait, Harry... you also asked him on a date? Unbelievable." Rahul exclaimed lowkey relieved.

"Wait—what?" Virat's spoon drops in shock, clattering on the table.

"Tch tch your Rahuliya knows it too. That's a proper spoon-drop moment" Jaddu chided in.

"He also asked you out?" Virat asks, eyes wide in disbelief.

"Um, yeah. If 'asking' means clinging like a leech and cribbing for a week, then he did. I had to show him my chat with Thiya to stop his drama," Rahul remarks with a shrug.

"My head is spinning with the thought of what if it comes out as a prank," Jaddu says, feigning terror. Yuzi, catching on, dramatically hugs Jaddu, adding to the act.

"Hold me, Kulya! I'm not ready for this kind of heartbreak!" Yuzi wails theatrically.

"What prank? This is about the love of my life Yuzi" Harry exclaims, feigning deep hurt.

"Cap, Vi, how can you think like this? Look at him! Is this what you've picked up from bro and cap in all these years, Jassi?" Harry says, gesturing dramatically towards Jassi. Virat and Rohit jolt up in terror, their eyes wide with fear. The room erupts into muffled chuckles and murmurs as the team revels in the over-the-top drama.

"Hayee Ram ye kya hogaya. Hamari bhabhiyon ke to bhag hi phoot gaye. Mahi bhai aap kya coaches se meeting kar rahe ho ary ab kehne sunne ko bacha hi kya hai." Jaddu wails loudly, sitting on the floor and beating his head in dramatic fashion.
