Samriddhi Kohli has always believed that numbers make more sense than emotions. As one of the brightest sports analysts working with the BCCI, her world revolves around match data, strategy meetings, and helping India's biggest cricket stars perform under pressure. Love was never part of the plan. But everything changes when two of Indian cricket's most celebrated young players enter her life in ways she never expected. Abhishek Sharma is warm, fearless, and impossible to ignore. He brings laughter into her carefully structured world and makes every day feel lighter. Shubman Gill is calm, ambitious, and endlessly understanding. Behind his composed exterior lies a connection with Samriddhi that grows stronger with every conversation. As friendships deepen, feelings become impossible to hide. Caught between two hearts, media scrutiny, professional boundaries, and the pressure of life in the spotlight, Samriddhi must navigate a choice that could change all three of their lives forever. In a world where every match is decided by fine margins, the biggest decision of all won't be made on the cricket field.

Mira Anand was supposed to work for the Indian cricket team. Not become the distraction inside it. At twenty-four, the SRCC and IIM graduate enters the world of Indian cricket as the youngest analyst in the BCCI's performance strategy unit-armed with data models, sharp instincts, and absolutely no interest in fame, cricketers, or complicated emotions. Then she meets them. Shubman Gill-Indian cricket's polished golden boy, effortless charm, and the kind of man people already expect her to fall for. And Abhishek Sharma- reckless, intense, impossible to ignore. The opener who starts looking for her in team meetings. In hotel lobbies. In every stadium crowd. What begins with casual conversations and lingering glances slowly turns into late-night calls, secret moments between tours, viral photographs, media speculation, and a relationship neither of them is ready to name. Because falling for India's most watched cricketer was never part of Mira's plan. Especially not when the entire country is waiting to figure them out first

𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐢𝐧 ' 𝐀𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐬 & 𝐄𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐬' 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 In a world that screams, I stand in despair, My voice drowned out, lost in the air. Chains of tradition tighten each day, I long to escape, but I'm forced to stay. Each breath I take feels heavy and torn, Every mistake a scar I've worn. I crave a sky where I can be free, Away from the walls that imprison me. For now, I sit with my heart in pain, Silent, yet screaming, again and again. Though shattered, a spark in me still survives, Dreaming of freedom where my soul can rise.
