Viratxpat Stories

Virat Kohli. Superstar of the game. Indian Captain. One of the best batters in the world. Pat Cummins. Wunderkind slowly cementing his place back into the Australian side after a long battle with injury. They live an ocean apart, yet keep getting drawn to each other in ways they cannot seem to understand. Nothing about this makes sense. But as they say, all is fair in love and sports. --- An RPF on their journey in cricket over the last few years, intertwined with some rivals-to-lovers for the intended audience of one (me). (Updating first on AO3, also @hazlehoff)

A slow-burn, rivals-to-lovers romance between India's fiercest batsman and Australia's golden boy where one night turns into something neither of them expected. From hidden glances to forever, this is love off the pitch.
