The Indian cricket team exiting the stadium after their victory over Australia in the T20 World Cup semi-final. The players are all exhausted but beaming with joy....

The team boards the bus, the atmosphere is filled with celebration......Players are high-fiving each other, cracking jokes, and teasing one another....

Yuvi : (playfully to Mahi) Mahi yaar... aaj ka run-out toh zabardast tha..!! Pata tha mujhe ke tune match ka mood bana liya tha....

Mahi : (laughing) yuvi...tu apni centuries ka dhyaan rakh.... run-outs ka tension main sambhaal lunga...

Rohit : (laughing from behind) Mahi Bhai, aap dono ki chemistry match ke time itni zabardast hoti hai ki hum bas dekhte hi reh jaate hain...

Everyone laughs

Gautam : (in his usual serious tone) Bas guys, ab focus karna hoga final ke liye..... Celebration apni jagah, lekin jo kaam bacha hai, wo sabse important hai....

The team falls silent for a moment, respecting Gautam's words, before Mahi breaks the ice...

Mahi : Haan....haan gauti..., tu bilkul sahi keh raha hai... Final ki strategy ke baare mein zaroor sochna hai, but abhi toh thoda relax karte hai...vaise aabhi late night flight bhi hai...

Everyone nods in agreement, and the mood lightens again...

The team arrives back at the hotel, where they are greeted by jammy hai and sachin pa.....

Jammy bhai : (smiling and clapping) Super performance, boys! We are so proud of each one of you...

Sachin pa : (patting Mahi on the back) Mahi..... you led the team brilliantly.....tum logon ne jo teamwork dikhaya hai.... uski wajah se aaj hum final mein hain....

Yuvi rushes over to jammy bhai and sachin pa, hugging them both tightly...

Yuvi : jammy bhai, sachin pa, aap logon ko dekh ke lagta hai ki pura team hi complete ho gaya..... agar dada bhi yaha hote toh bas ekdam perfect hota...

Jammy bhai : (laughing) Haan...haan, tum toh aaise behave kar rahe ho jaise barso k baad mile ho....

Sachin pa : (with a smirk) Waise.....aabhi dada ko dekhna bhi hai finals jeetke k aap nhi aaye aapka loss hai

Everyone nods with serious face

The team gathers in the common room for some light-hearted banter. Mahi sits in a relaxed position on the couch, with Yuvi next to him. Rohit, Bhajju Pa, Gautam, Jammy Bhai, and Sachin Pa are scattered across the room...

Bhajju pa : Toh Ro.... kaisa lag raha hai? Finals khelne ka pressure ya phir excitement zyada hai ?!!

Rohit : (grinning) Mujhe toh sirf excitement hai.... Waise bhi jab itne bade legends ke saath hoon.... toh kuch bhi impossible nahi lagta..

Yuvi : (nudging Rohit) Ro ko dekho..... confidence toh sky-high hai ab..

Everyone laughs, including Gautam, who rarely cracks a smile....

Jammy bhai : always focus on the basics, guys.....

Sachin pa : and always remember, cricket is a team game. Ek aur baat - don't let the pressure get to you......

Bhajju pa, decides to lighten the mood

Bhajju pa : (in a mischievous tone) Aur waise bhi...Ro, agar tu nervous feel kare, toh ek shortcut hai...!!
