Bleed in Blue

When a rising cricket star is framed and pushed into the shadows, the only person assigned to protect him doesn’t even care about the game.
          
          He Played Straight. I Didn’t explores scandal, redemption, and a slow-burn connection built under pressure.
          
          Would love to know what you think if you give it a try

I’ve just started my new story Shattered Vows,
          and I’d be really grateful if you could take a moment to read it.
          It would truly mean a lot to me.

Hi !  I see if you’re into sports romance with all the chaos of a slow burn enemies-to-lovers, I’d really love it if you gave my story a try - "THE PITCH PERFECT EVERYTHING" It’s a mix of stadium lights, courtroom drama, family legacies, and two people who absolutely did not plan on crossing paths again—yet life had other ideas.
          
          The story centers on Abhay Sharma, a cricketer carrying the weight of expectations, and Ashwini Mehra, a young nutritionist who suddenly finds herself thrown into the same world as him. Their history is complicated, full of bitterness and misunderstandings, but the tension between them makes every interaction electric.
          
          This isn’t a fast, rushed romance—it’s the kind where every stolen glance, every argument, every reluctant truce builds toward something bigger. If you love the push and pull, the drama of past wounds clashing with present desires, and the adrenaline of sports woven into the tenderness of love, this might be your next read.
          
          Your support and feedback would mean so much—every reader makes the journey special. Hope you’ll give it a shot!

Pujji..
          your batting in test cricket for this country for this team have always stood tall in the time of need.
          it was always a pure bliss to watch you bat.
          something I'll always gonna miss no matter what happens.
          you have always been the modern day wall of our test team. a pillar standing tall in front of opposition in the time of need.
          thank you for everything you gave to us, for being an important factor in those wins where the victory looked far from us.
          i really really wish if this trash management atleast could give you a farewell match.
          but that's alot of expectation from these people.
          you deserve better you always did.
          your efforts were always underrated yet you have been the forver hero of our most successful test era.

Hey yaar.
          How are you?
          Gosh kitne mahino se baat nahi hui

Siraj miyaan.
          do you even know what you have done today?
          god this man. he never ever steps away from responsibility what he has done is something that can't be explained in words.
          a match to be remembered till your last breath if you are a real Indian cricket fan.
          a spell from Siraj that was every bit of brilliance from an 80 overs old ball.
          
          because the heart believed till the end - to not give up.
          to never give up, not this easily because this team had showed the grit the determination the hunger and the passion that they can do it.
          
          and they did it..
          This match is a thrill.
          test cricket is a thrill.
          to never give up no matter what happens.
          
          as an Indian cricket fan..
          i don't remember coming this close to winning a test match for any time.
          
          a miracle..
          and a class from every one every person in that team.
          giving their all with every fibre of their being. 

This match would be remember for thousand of years.
          Mohammad siraj what a man you are!
          what a man.
          trust me whoever witnessed it today will know what it means!
          and how we won is a pure miracle.
          
          miracle is what you will call this match.
          Gill's captaincy had been brilliant today on this day especially.
          
          go well boys! this is what you all deserve. 

This will keep happening unless and until this management focuses more on how to take 20 wickets by playing specialists. proper pacers and proper spinners instead of increasing the batting order.
          
          another series and the same story is being repeated once again.
          gautam Gambhir and the management's obsession of playing all-rounders instead of proper wicket taking bowlers has ruined the test team so badly that nothing looks like fixing the mess they have managed to make.
          
          these wickets of england were always gonna be flat. because England's bowling was also going through transition period and for that they needed to rely on their batting, which they are doing phenomenally. 
          
          but us?
          our team?
          our batting was in transition not the bowling.
          this bowling attack was same as the Bangladesh series 2024, england series 2024, newzealand series 2024, and even bgt series 2024.
          
          you needed to play one extra bowler to win this series which you have failed to do so.
          no matter how many all-rounders you play, it won't give the same impact as a specialist bowler in this kind of pitch.
          
          talking about Gill?
          well i don't have much to say. 
          Because I don't believe in these statements of ' abhi naya captain hai, seekhne mein time lagega and all'. 
          
          the captiancy wasn't upto the mark.
          but most of the mess has been made by team selection calls.
          
          first fix that.
          
          let's see - 35 runs... or 4 wickets.. 
          
          
          

No, ben stokes sir, washington Sundar and Ravindra Jadeja didn't got their hundreds against Harry brook and Joe Root, they got their hundred against the entire bowling attack - under extreme pressure fighting for their team, with their backs against the wall!! 
          use Part timers to save your bowlers but don't disrespect someone's effort. 
          
          also the typical England media calling out about spirit of the game dude what the fuck?? and how we didn't accepted the draw earlier. 
          
          the rule about taking the draw is that the bowling unit can offer a handshake of draw before the day ends or session ends.
          but its upto the the batting team whether to accept it or not. 
          
          so no don't come to the players crying about why India didn't accepted the draw earlier because we didn't wanted to.
          
           simple.
          
          our two batters were on their 90s. having fought through tough conditions and having given their all. they deserved those centuries.
