2017 Champions Trophy Finals

India was in a nail biting situation, they lost early wickets with a mammoth 300 plus score to be chased. Hardik was the only one who was batting properly and the team had hopes that the hopes of winning stay alive until Hardik keeps batting and Jaddu kept supporting him.

The pressure was high on both Hardik and Jadeja, Jaddu hit a shot and Hardik ran immediately so they could keep the runs flowing with singles as well but Jaddu saw that the fielder had the ball and he didnt run, well they both ended on on the same side.

Hardik who felt that he could have made India win the match was extremely frustrated, he threw his bat while coming back to the dug out, he was totally annoyed and angry. When he reached the dug out, no one really went to Hardik knowing that talking to him when he is in this state of anger will not have any good outcome.

Hardik threw things around in the dressing room, his helmet was in one corner, gloves on the other and a few chairs toppled around as well, he just didnt know hot to control his anger.

In a over Jaddu was back in the dug out, he was disappointed by himself, he knew that the run out was a big mess and Hardik's mood was a even bigger mess. Jaddu was going into the dug out when Virat tried stopping him.

"Virat, II want to go take a shower, let me go." Jaddu said.

'NO just sit with me." Virat said.

"I didnt say no, just let me go in and have a shower and change." Jaddu said and he pushed the dressing room door and they saw the condition of the dressing room, it was an even bigger mess than the run out and the moods in the team's dug out.

Virat looked at Rohit immediately, and he gave him a look and Rohit knew that Virat's look meant 'split up' and he immediately went in before Jaddu could and closed the door and Virat took Jaddu away as well.

"I know it was a mess on my part, but why is he over reacting?" Jaddu asked Virat.

"He is just naturally aggressive Jaddu." Virat said trying to be sensible and neutral.

"I know that, but spoiling the dressing room, kicking the boundaries in a fully packed stadium, throwing his bat in a way that it would have broken, all this is tooo much Virat." Jaddu said.

"He is just a youngster who thought that if the run out wouldnt have happened we would have won, and even I used to be so aggressive before, leave it." Virat said and the very next minute India had lost, and Virat looked down thinking they could have done better as a team, but nevertheless he went for the post match interview.

Hardik stormed out of the dressing room, Rohit could only calm down 10 per cent of Hardik's anger and when Jassi came back in, Hardik went out of the stadium on his own, he took a cab and he was off, no one really knew where he went

"Now this is too much." Jaddu said as he saw Hardik storm off.

"He has done this a few times, he goes away when he is angry, let him be alone for some time." Rohit said.

"Still Ro, I know I messed up, he can be angry but not like this, this is like he is doing whatever he wants to, thats not how you can behave in front off thousands of people, people will assume there is something wrong between us two." Jaddu said.

"That they already do." Virat said and Rohit showed Jaddu his phone which had Hardik's tweet -

Hume toh apno ne loota, gairo mein kaha dum tha.

"What the hell?" Jaddu asked getting up.

"What does he mean to say? I did it on purpose? He is crossing his limits now, this is too much. He is forgetting that I am a senior player than him, I have worked just as hard as him to reach where I am now, What does he mean to say I sold the match out?" Jaddu asked angrily and Virat and Rohit knew that if this situation was not handled it would go out of control.

"Mahi bhai." Virat said immediately and pulled him into the situation and went to give the post match interview which he just wished could be avoided.

"What happened Jaddu? Sit down, stop hitting the locker." MSD asked.

"Look at this Hardik, look what he tweeted." Jaddu said and MSD saw the tweet on Rohit's phone and he just shook his head negatively.

"Any idea where he went?" MSD enquired about Hardik and Rohit mumbled a no.

"Jaddu, who is the senior here?" MSD asked him.

"You." Jaddu said and MSD face palmed.

"I meant among you and Harry." MSD said.

"Me." Jaddu said.

"Who made the mistake?" MSD asked.

"Me." Jaddu said.

"Who reacted insensibly?" MSD asked.

"He" Jaddu replied.

"Who should be the sensible one being a senior and calm him down now?" MSD asked.

"You." Jaddu said and MSD wondered why is he even stuck here

"Run out tum dono ne kiya, react aise usne kiya, ghussa tum ho, aur tum dono ko samjhao mein. Wah." MSD said and Rohit giggled in one corner and MSD shot a glare at him and Rohit shut up immediately.

"I dont know, I wont talk to him now, only he has to say sorry, for this tweet." Jaddu said angrily and he stormed off just like Hardik did.

"Yeh gujju log ka attitude aur ghussa dikhane ka style hain kya?" Shikhar asked and Rohit laughed again shutting up with another glare from MSD.

"What happened? Where is Jaddu?" Virat asked coming back from the post match.

"Two angry gujju boys in the city." Yuvi said gloomily packing his kit bag and that made Rohit laugh again earning another glare from MSD to make him shut his mouth up.

"Call the two of them" MSD ordered

"I will call Jaddu." Rohit and Virat said together and the whole team turned to look at them with a horrified look expecting another Rohirat drama.

"Cheeku call Jad, Ro call Harry." MSD immediately said and the rest sighed.

"They are not picking up" they both said together.

"Another gujju boys style to show attitude?" Shikhar asked and no this time Rohit didnt laugh because MSD glared at him before he could.

"We have a flight tomorrow, they will end up at the hotel only in the end." MSD said coolly and his words can never be wrong so the rest didnt protest.

Hardik was furiously roaming around in London, with no clue about where he was heading towards and Jaddu was in a similar state.

Hardik finally sat down on a bench and checked his phone to find around 40 miss calls from both Rohit and Virat because they couldnt stick to calling the person they were assigned to call and another 20 miss calls from Krunal, 15 miss calls from Jassi and 15 from Bhuvi as well. He was going to switch his phone of but thats when Krunal called again and he picked the call up.

"Whats wrong with you Harry? Okay you reacted violently to the run out but your tweet? Its offensive and controversial. Why do you keep forgetting that you just started out with your career and you dont want to get into a mess and spoil all our hard work?" Krunal lashed out and Hardik was already angry and this was not helping in any way.

"I want you to delete the tweet and apologize to Jaddu, he seems pretty cool and chill but your tweet was offensive, he made a mistake but you are being insensible when you ay such things about your senior." Krunal said and Hardik was getting even more annoyed about the fact that he was being lectured for no fault of his according to him.

"Okay I will bye." Hardik said thinking that picking up the call was a mistake, a huge mistake.

Hardik deleted the tweet to avoid anymore lectures because according to him, no one is going to consider what happened on the field and lecture Jaddu but rather look at his tweet and lecture him.

Hardik returned to the hotel but he didnt meet anyone till the morning, he probably drank too much because when he woke up his head was paining like anything and he had a bad hangover. When he got out from his room, he saw MSD glaring at him and Hardik immediately looked down.

"Chal niche." MSD said strictly and Hardik, without uttering a word followed MSD.

"I want you to apologize to Jaddu for whatever that happened yesterday, I dont want the best all rounders of the team to be against each other, there will be many such knocks where you two will make us win the match, thats only if you two work together." MSD said and Hardik just nodded, he cant refuse to do something his Mahi bhai asked him to.

On the other hand Jaddu was being brought down by Virat.

"Jaddu, see I recently became the captain, you know how hard it is for me not finally change my mindset to that of a captain and also to the fact that Mahi bhai isnt the captain and I need to take decisions. You and Harry will do great if you two support each not like this, I dont want a rift in my team, you they will ay that I couldnt hold the team together and all." Virat said, trying to use the 'cant you do this for your best friend' card.

"What do you want?" Jaddu asked.

"Say sorry and sort things out." Virat said.

"Only because you are saying." Jaddu said and Virat jumped over him saying, "I knew that you will listen to me."

"Get off before I change my mind." Jaddu murmured and Virat got off.

They reached the breakfast hall and MSD looked at Virat who showed him a thumbs up and Jaddu went towards Harry.

"Sorry." they both said the minute they saw each other.

"The run out was a mess, I should have been careful." Jaddu murmured, that did bug him all night long.

"I thought I could do something special in the match, my reaction wa out of anger, it wasnt intentional." Hardik also murmured letting out the guilt he had about insulting a senior player.

"Oh hero na samajh khudne, Virat ae na kidhu hat to tane sorry na ket atyaare." (Oh, dont think that you are some hero, if Virat didnt tell then I wouldnt have told you sorry now.) Jaddu saidout of no where .

"Vadhare na vicharto, aa fakta Mahi bhai mate aj karu chu." (Dont think too much, I am doing this only for Mahi bhai) Hardik said trying to give a tit for tat answer.

"Hindi slash english slash punjabi please, even Marathi is fine, Ro is here or Tamil, Ash is also there, Puji is not here so no Gujrati please." Virat said peeking in.

Jaddu and Hardik glared at each other and then at Virat, they then dramatically went on opposite ways.

"What actually happened?" Virat asked.

"They wont show anything for each other outside atleast, but trust between them is questionable." MSD sighed and Virat pretended that he knew that and he was testing MSD.

The top order has collapsed, Virat did play a significant knock of 66 runs, but after Virat's wicket, it seemed almost impossible to reach a good total, but not for the two gujju boys on the field.

"300 plus." Hardik said to Jaddu the minute he came in.

"First be slow, bahut time hain, wicket mat jane dena." Jaddu instructed.

"Not like I purposely give my wicket off, its due to some people." Hardik indirectly said and walked to the crease and Jaddu knew what Hardik was referring to.

They started out the innings quite very slowly, just trying not to go all out and risk the innings.

"Dont you think we are too slow right now?" Hardik asked Jaddu after a few overs.

"I dont think I want another horrendous tweet." Jaddu taunted Hardik and they walked back again.

They did manage to keep the innings sailing, but now there were less overs left and more runs to make, Hardik wanted to hit out now.

"I will hit now, just run when required." Hardik said.

"Zyada rockstar mat ban." Jaddu said and Hardik rolled his eyes.

"LBW, Hit wicket, Catch." Jaddu listed out.

"What? I know what all this is." Hardik said.

"Just reminding you the ways you can get out in." Jaddu said and they walked back.

Hardik did heed to what Jaddu said and remained a little in control and hit out when he saw it coming and Jaddu also supported him. In the last few overs, the both went all out

"I want you to take strike in the last few balls if possible." Jaddu said.

"What?" Hardik asked.

"Behra hain kya?" Jaddu asked.

" I meant why?" Hardik asked.

"Get your century" Jaddu said.

"Dont be so daanveer or is it because you think you wont be able to hit out in the end." Hardik said.

"I thought that I will let you score a century for Agastya, but forget it now." Jaddu said and they walked back again.

India ended with 302 runs, thanks to the gujju boys that held the innings strong.

"You two did ittttt." Virat screamed as soon and they both entered the dressing room.

"See I knew that one day you two will make us win the match" Virat said.

"Number one, it was Mahi bhai who knew that first." Hardik said.

"Number two, we didnt win yet." Jaddu said.

"You two seriously dont know what you did today?" Shikhar asked them both and they looked clueless.

"You two broke a 21 year old record." Rahul said and Hardik and Jaddu burst out laughing like anything.

"What nonsense? I am just 27, how did I make a record when I was 6?" Hardik asked and the team stared at him except Jaddu who barely even understood Hardik's point.

"Why are these two such idiots?" Virat murmured.

"21 years ago two people made a record against Australia which you two finally broke today." Jassi tried explaining.

"We were just taunting each other down in the field." Jadeja said.

"I did that to rile you up, otherwise he wouldnt have gotten his half century." Hardik said.

"I was ready to give him his well deserved century also." Jaddu said.

"Shusshhh, what not sense is going on? You two broke a 21-year-old record for the highest 6th-wicket partnership against Australia in ODI cricket." Virat said.

"Damn was that a joke?" Jadeja asked.

"No I dont think so because Gujju boys can do anything." Hardik said.

"Yes we broke a record wohooo." Jadeja said.

"Iss khushi mein tu hi rockstar." Hardik said.

"That I always was." Jadeja said.

"NO i became in between but now you take that title, because I am a dad now." Hardik said.

"Then what do you think I am a mom?" Jaddu asked sarcastically and the two of them burst out laughing.

"Are all gujratis this mad or is it just them?" Shubman, being a little new to all this asked.

"Just them Shubh, because Puji isnt anywhere close to mad." Virat said giving a very logical explanation.

"Humpty Dumty went up the hill and threw down Sanju Manju" Hardik and Jaddu sang.

"Did they just refer themselves as Humpty Dumpty?" Shreyas asked.

"I dont know about that, but Harry is probably planning to go to school with Agastya" Shikhar laughed.

"Sanju Manju should now finally retire and sit in some corner." Hardik continued.

"We didnt win the match yet, enough of celebrating." Virat said getting back to captain mode.

"Says who was jumping when we entered" Jaddu said.

"And dancing." Hardik said and high fived with Jaddu.

"Anyways, lets plan for the next innings and thanks to the gujju boys with us who managed to ease atleast some amount of pressure from the bowlers." Virat said.

"No problem, even I am a bowler, I hit so well so its easy for me to stay relaxed and bowl." Jaddu said and Virat face palmed.

"Can I continue?" Virat asked him.

"Yes please." Jaddu said.

"Moving on...." Virat said and continued
