Cricket with Gurus

When I got home it was 7 pm. We had dinner and watched some tv. Then we went to bed.

The next morning...
Our first lesson in Gurukul was Anatomy. Sumedh Sir gave us our test papers. He was so fast, he checked them in a night! When he came to me he smiled and I looked at the sheet: 89%!! Damn it!! I tapped on my shoulder. "Well done!! Tera first impression accha jam gaya...but why do you care about that!? Urgh!! Yeh emotions!! I hate them!" I thought. Diksha and Devaki passed it with 66% and 78%. I didn't dare to say something to Diksha because I knew she will get better marks than me in Music.

We checked the mistakes and soon the lesson got over.

Punyakar's POV
Students came in the class. "Hey Dexter!!" I said to Diksha. "Very funny!!" She said. I laughed and everyone sat on their respective seats. "Ok so now we have the Dance lesson" I said. Diksha widened her eyes. "What?? Me hi tumhara Dance teacher hu..." I said. "Ise mera good luck samjho ya apna bad luck" I whispered getting close to her. She rolled her eyes. "Ok to guys tell me what dance form you practice or what's your favourite dance form" I said. "Contemporary" Devaki said. "Locking-Popping aur Dubstep bhi, usme thori mehnat krni prti h lekin end me result accha hi hota h" Bandana said. "Ohh, fir to tumhari Sumedh k saath acchi jameghi" I said as Sumedh was excellent in those forms.

Devaki's POV
Punyakar Sir told us that even Sumedh Sir is good at those forms. A gave a nudge to Bandana. She looked at me and I passed her a teasing smile. She rolled her eyes.

Punyakar Sir said that we'll start dance the next lesson, which was some days after.

We left for home as we finished our lessons.

When we arrived home, Bandana got Mahi Bhai's message which said practice was starting from today.

"Eh mujhe bhi le chal na...Diksha shopping k lie jaa rhi h, Taran apne friend k ghar jaa raha h, me yaha kya karunghi?" I asked. She agreed at took me to the stadium.

We arrived there in half an hour. Other players were coming as well. I was meeting everyone for the first time so I was nervous, but soon my anxiety vanished. Everyone was really friendly. I sat on the bench.

Bandana told them about my cricket so they took me in team as well.

Bandana'a POV
Mahi Bhai said that the new players are coming. We were waiting for them. They came. I was hell shocked when I looked at them: Sumedh Sir and Siddharth Sir were the new players!

I took Mahi Bhai and Virat Bhaji to a corner. "Mujhe nhi khelna...me jaa rhi hu wapis" I said. Virat Bhaji held my wrist. "Ki hoya?" They asked. "They're my teachers!!" I said. "To?" They said in unision. "Look, me Siddharth Sir k saath khel sakti hu but Sumedh Sir k saamne nhi khel paunghi" I said. "Kyu? Tum dono ka chattees ka ankra h?" Virat Bhaji asked. I shook my head. "Fir?" He asked. "I'm shy" I said in low voice. They started launghing. "You are shy? Then I'm the most aggressive person in this world!" Mahi Bhai said. I chuckled. "Chal chal...bahane-baazi band! Ab pitch pe aa, bowling kreghi tu aur batting krega tera Sumedh Sir!" He ordered. I followed him.

Siddharth's POV
I went and sat next to Devaki. "Yaha kese?" I asked. "Yeh to mujhe poochna chahiye! Me to Bandana k saath ai thi, woh khelti h na aur me bhi khelne wali hu" She replied. "Me bhi" I said. She widened her eyes. "What?" She asked. "Yeah!! I play...its the first time in the Team lekin me kaafi saalo se domestic team me khel raha hu" I explained.

Mahi Bhai called us on field. I went to the mid-off and Devaki to the square leg.

Sumedh's POV
I was actually surprised to see Bandana as a player in the team. She didn't look like a sports player.

She bowled the first ball: wide. Second ball: wide. Third ball: wide. Mahi Bhai was standing behind me as he was the wicketkeeper. "Bhai aapne to kaha tha yeh boht acchi player h" I said. "H na! Bas aaj tere saamne bowling nhi kar paa rhi" He said. I cocked my eyebrow. "Manjhe?" I asked. "Manjhe kucch nhi...aata hu me" He said. I nodded. He went to Bandana and said something to her. She nodded and everyone got back to their positions.

I could bet 1000 rupees that the ball was going to be wide. But she proved me wrong and I got bowled out. I was hell shocked. I turned towards Mahi Bhai. "Esi kya patti padhai use?" I asked. He chuckled. "Secret h...time aane pe btaunga" He said. I nodded and went.

I sat on a bench. After some very good overs, Bandana came and sat on the bench next to me. I sat next to her. "Tumhe...mujhse darr lagta h?" I asked. She shook her head. "To fir itna darti kyu ho mujhse?" I asked. "M-me darti nhi hu" She said in a low voice. I looked towards her. Finally!!! She said something to me!
