Day 2: Reconcile

“I didn’t want to make a scene.”

“What? When you jumped ship and disappeared for years?” 

I didn’t want to know what my face was doing. This was exactly what I’d meant to avoid. “I didn’t know what to do.”

Basilica’s arm cut a sharp arc in front of my chest. Had we been standing any closer, she would have punted me into the railing. “Anything, Maryan! Anything other than running off like everything between us was nothing but some—” She cut herself off and sliced the air again. 

It didn’t seem to help. I was this close to asking if she wanted to slap me to get some of her frustration out, but something told me that wouldn’t be well received either. 

Basilica crossed her arms and scoffed. “No matter. Message received. Could have done with a word or two to go with it, but you know. That’s just me being a hopeless romantic.”

Titans, this was excruciating. Not a single part of me regretted having run from this conversation—only that it had finally caught up with me. “I wasn’t trying to hurt you.”

“I believe you.” The ship swayed and forced Basilica to uncross her arms to hold onto the railing. It made her look different. More open. Less angry. She made up for it with the kind of scowl usually reserved for rival captains or incompetent crewmembers. “I’d have still liked something more. Nothing like an explosive argument to give closure.”

“What would we have fought about?”

“You’re actually serious, aren’t you?”

“Nevermind,” I said quickly. 

Wrong again. The waves lapping at the hull below us were starting to sound awfully inviting. 

Basilica wasn’t the kind of person to yell when she was angry. Her voice got quieter and quieter until you had to lean in to understand her, even when you’d rather get as much distance between yourself and her as possible. 

“Five years really weren’t enough for you to come up with something to say? Anything?”

Closer to seven, actually. I didn’t say that. I was awkward, not suicidal. 

“Why did you leave?” Basilica asked. “Just answer me that. Why leave without a word?”

“That’s two different questions.” 

“Maryan, I swear to the gods—”

“But which one—”

“Both of them! Either! Just—” Basilica tore herself away from me like it was a physical struggle. She scowled at the sea. 

Slowly, tentatively, I joined her. Something about not facing each other made it easier. Funny. That was one problem I’d never had with Basilica before. “You wanted something I can’t give.”

Basilica’s hand was clenched into a fist on top of the railing. “What?”

I shrugged. “Whatever it is you have with your crew.”

“I don’t have anything with my crew. I have many different things with many members of my crew.”

“Whatever it is, it wouldn’t have worked.”

“What does that even mean?” 

I pushed away with a start. “Any of it! Anything! Whatever it is you wanted from me back then, you wouldn’t have gotten it.” 

Why was this so hard for Basilica to understand? She ought to have realized by now that the only thing she got out of knowing me was disappointment. 

Basilica still faced the sea. Her hand now rested on top of the wood, relaxed. “And that’s not something you could have just told me?” 

“You would have just,” I flapped my hand around the air aimlessly. “You would have tried to make me fit.”

She still didn’t turn. Not being able to see her face was starting to unnerve me. 

“Would that have been so bad?” Basilica asked. “Fitting in?” 

I left her standing by the railing. 

xxx

She tracked me down in the cabin I shared with Chandran and Surya that evening. Before I could say a single word, she opened her hand and presented it to me wordlessly. 

I stared at the thing resting on her palm. “What is this?”

“Took you only five years to forget?” 

Of course I hadn’t forgotten. That thing in Basilica’s hand had haunted me for years. The obsidian surface gleamed in the dim light of the lantern. 

My throat had gone dry. “Why are you doing this again?”

“I want you to take it.”

“I’m not like your crew. I can’t be… whatever you call them.”

Lovers. Spouses. Playmates. I’d never gotten the intricacies of her crew dynamic. Mostly because I spent a lot of effort not trying to. 

“I don’t need you to be,” Basilica said. She was still holding that stupid ring. 

“You give your lovers jewelry.” It ended up sounding like an accusation. 

“Not all of them sleep with me.”

“But I’m not—” I clenched my jaw shut. “I can’t.” 

Basilica fiddled with the ring. “I’m not doing this to make you uncomfortable,” she said slowly. “I listened to you. I promise.”

“It wouldn’t mean what you want it to mean.”

“What’s that?”

“I don’t know.” I swallowed roughly. “I don’t do relationships. None of them.”

“This can mean whatever you want it to mean. Could be friendship. Could be nothing.” Basilica’s lips twisted sardonically. “I couldn’t stop you if you sold this at the nearest port if you really wanted to.” She held it out until the ring was right in front of me. “I got it for you. I can’t give it to anybody else.”

Plucking the ring from her palm felt like a death sentence. It fit onto the longest finger of my hand perfectly and gleamed like Basilica had polished it every single night we’d spent apart.

You know what..I am gonna say it

I don't know how everytime Ishan makes it to the trending page on Twitter, some negative PR pops up.

Also people who are saying that him training with Hardik Pandya is ass licking. Then where are these people when Surya and Bumrah show support to Rohit. Surya's love for Rohit is considered loyalty but Ishan's love for Hardik would be considered ass licking. Such hypocrites.

Also Ishan had made it clear very early on that the Hardik took him under his wing pretty early on. So it is rather Ishan is very loyal to Hardik despite Hardik getting so much hate. Also people saying Ishan should spend more time with Rohit instead of Pandya speaks so much about the obvious favouritism in Indian Cricket Team.

Also I want to just say, I personally consider IPL as a cricket fest. Players come together to enjoy cricket for once and here our Indian team is fighting like cats and dogs for a mere IPL team captaincy. I mean Rohit should understand he is the captain of the Indian Team and this childishness of following-unfollowing is just kind of pointless. I never see Virat doing so. And I AM A ROHIT SHARMA FAN TOO. He was the reason I am part of MI Paltan.

Calling Hardik Pandya 'chappri' and 'disloyal' and what not for franchise cricket when he has given a lot to the National Team is so toxic of the fans. Why do we forget that before IPL...WE ARE THE INDIAN NATIONAL TEAM.

Pulling in a youngster, a 25 year old in this fight is almost like pulling in Abhimanyu in the Chakravyuh and ruthlessly killing him. That kid has always been humble and never failed to praise Rohit's captaincy. But now when he chose to train with his family in cricket...He is being brashly hated for it. That kid has performed whenever he got a chance yet he is being played around like a toy. Even Sunil Gavaskar considers him a "a rare talent".

WHY ARE WE LETTING AN IPL CAPTAINCY BREAK DOWN ICT WHICH IS LIKE A FAMILY. THIS TOXIC INDIVIDUAL PLAYER SUPPORTING FANDOM HAS BEVER BROUGHT GOOD TO THE GAME.

So I think Ishan is absolutely right for training with Hardik because he never wanted this war and he never wanted to pick sides. He is being caught in the crossfire and people telling him to side Rohit for a place in team actually speak a lot about favouritism.

THAT WAS ALL FROM MY SIDE AND THIS IS JUST MY PERSONAL OPINION. PEACE OUT✌️

Hoping Ishan come back stronger than ever and God is with him🧿🧿🧿🔱🔱🔱

[45cementry-gates]

My thoughts on the current ipl points table that absolutely no one asked for :

(part-1)

1. They're the og champions...very chill, very fun vibes.

soo happy to see them on top. They really be feeling like royalty rn lol.

Also in the end, I'm just a girl 🎀💖 some I absolutely adore their jersey.

2. Yaar.... I know Hyderabad is a great team and everything but.... Do you guys have to go this hard?

Other teams come to play a match, this team comes to crack open your morale and bring you to your knees.

Baki teams khel rahi hai, Yeh log toh seedha gunda gardi kar rahe hai Yaar.

Watching Abhishek, our Indian player, a youngster, bat like that feels amazing tho.

3. Kolkata.... Man.

Gautam bhai aaye, and suddenly Sabka Chris Gayle bahar aagya.

I feel like sunil will take both purple and orange caps this year and gambhir bhai has already planned on picking the trophy this year so... Yea.

PS : once gautam bhai is done someone pls convince him to come as ICT's coach.

4. Chennai = 7 letters = thala for a reason.

They're doing great, but their recent performances makes me worried about what will happen to this team when Mahi Bhai retires.

If they don't start taking more responsibility now there's a good chance csk will crash land in the bottom next year. Hope thT doesn't happen tho.

5. LSG, you beauty....

They look like they are a weak team but they've defeated rcb, gt, pbks and...sabse importantly.... CSK.

But their next matches are quite tough too... So we'll see where they end up after 2 - 3 more matches.

The way kl Rahul hits sixes is just beautiful.

6. Mumbai.

I...... Have no idea what mysterious substance this management was on tbh.

If you want to remove someone from the captaincy, there's gotta be a better way to do that so the fans aren't offended and the player also isn't disrespected. Look how kohli left rcb's captaincy for example.

Then, if you wanted to look towards the future, Bumrah and Surya, both who have captained team India and have stayed with the franchise despite having so many opportunities to earn more if they leave should have been considered.

Or they could have just choosen Ishan. Just like csk and gt choose youngsters, Ishan could have been a good option too. Plus He's captained his team during u-19 in 2016.

But no. They choose Hardik.

Tbh, I feel so sorry for him cause in his mind, when MI offered him captaincy and called him back, he would have been happy to go back to his old team...like going back home.

But the sad truth is, MI management saw how successful he was in gt, winning in the first year and then reaching the finals in 2nd year....and it pissed them off that their player is doing well in some other team. So they brought him back.

Despite so much backlash from fans, so much hatred and trolling against Hardik, this shitty management never held one press conference to clear up misunderstandings and give answers to their fans honestly. Because they knew, if the truth comes out, they'll be on the receiving end of this hate.

Fuck them.

The only mistake Hardik did was leaving gt. But... Oh well.

(I ended up ranting lol.)

**What is Interspellar?**

Interstellar is a fantasy series that combines the setting of outer space with fantasy elements and magic. It follows a main cast as they attempt to lead a rebellion against the counsel that rules the galaxy with an iron fist. One of their missions is to locate the six cosmic stones and use their magic to dismantle the counsel and their reign.

**Who are the main characters?**

There are seven major characters, all of whom are part of the rebellion attempting to take down the counsel. They are:

-Cassiopeia (Cass) [she/her]

*A star marked. She is the pseudo-leader of their group, but oftentimes butts heads with Dess. She grew up as an orphan on a planet and joined the rebellion because of a close friend. Strong willed and confident, she has a knack for getting out of tough scrapes, even if she has no respect for rules or authority.*

-Dessponia (Dess) [she/her]

*A void marked, the daughter of a rebel captain, she has been in the rebellion since she was a child. Strict and powerful, she is a heavy rule follower and struggles with Cass’s brashness and unconventional ideas.*

-Lumi [they/she/he]

*A very talented inventor despite being the youngest of the group, Lumi is a brilliant engineer who creates a number of gadgets for the rebellion. A comet marked.*

-Ophiuchus (Ophi) [he/him]

*The son of a revered rebel who passed away some time ago, Ophi is eager to prove himself and although he sometimes exaggerates his abilities, his heart is good and he cares very deeply for the others, particularly Lumi, who he shares a close friendship with. A moon marked*

-Solaris [he/him]

*An sun marked and an escaped counsel prisoner, Solaris strangely has no memories before the age of 14. He is the currently only known survivor of a planet called Surya, which was annihilated in a counsel attack. He is a brilliant strategist and has served as a bit of a mentor to a couple of the others in terms of training. He is serious and blunt, but perhaps there’s more than that deep within himself, but he refuses to let that side show.*

-Arion [he/him]

*Dess’s twin brother, they were separated as children and Arion went on to be a soldier for the counsel. He and Solaris met during that period, and when he rescued Solaris from capture on a rebellion mission, he came back with him. He’s joined the rebellion, but tensions are still high with some members, including his sister. He is a comet marked.*

-Helix [they/them]

*The child of one of the council members, Helix is a fairly high ranking commander in their empire. What none of them know, is that they’ve been feeding the rebellion information for years, and is one of the core reasons they can complete missions and haven’t been wiped out by the counsel. They are nebula marked.*

**How does the magic work?**

The people in Interspellar are born marked as one of six kinds of magic. If two parents have the same mark, their child will have that mark. If the parents have different marks, there is a 50/50 chance the child will have either type of mark.

A mark is located like a tattoo somewhere on the person’s body, and glows when they use their magic. Magic is life, it flows in all living things and if something’s magic is totally depleted, it will die as it is the being’s life force itself. Magic is the primary form of combat, as technology is also powered by it.

The six types of marks are:

-Sun (fire magic)

-Moon (terraforming and water magic)

-Star (light magic)

-Void (shadow magic)

-Comet (ice magic)

-Nebula (air magic)

There are also six cosmic stones, beautiful gems that hold within them the most powerful magic of each type in the universe. Whoever holds them and can harness its magic would be one of the most powerful magic users of that type in the galaxy.

Bones of Sea Foam

“I can’t figure it out,” she told them, unsurprised when they didn’t turn to look at her. “Are you giving me attitude or are you just stupid?”

Nothing.  

“So you can’t talk. Not at all? Not a single word? Not even your own name?”

“...”

“Can you read? Write? Could you write down your answers if I asked you?”

“...”

“Can you at least nod? Or shake your head? Prove to me that something makes it through that dull head?”

The brat turned and pointed at the sea. This clarified nothing, as there was nothing to look at except the water and the horizon.

Izabel sighed and gave up. There was no reason to interact with them anyway, none other than to kill boredom. As long as they were still alive by the time they found their mother, it didn’t really matter what kind of condition they were in.

xxx

She shook her hand free from the blankets and formed the sign for 'water'. “Can you copy that?” 

The brat wasn't looking at her hand. She jostled them to get their attention. 

“Look. Do this with your hand if you're thirsty.” She formed the sign for 'supplies'. “And this one if you're hungry.” She paused, then formed another. “This one if it's too cold. Got that? Hungry, thirsty, cold. Can you do that?”

They moved their fingers, but didn't come close to making the signs Izabel had shown them. They looked like they were moving them at random.

Izabel sighed and closed her eyes. “Still don’t have a clue if you can understand me,” she muttered. She tugged the blanket back over the both of them, but she felt the brat’s hands still moving underneath it.

xxx

After a good while of the mage chattering to them in his own language, Izabel realized that he said the same word several times with a pointed sort of intent.

“What’s that you’re saying?” she asked. “You’re calling them something, aren’t you? Did they tell you their name?”

Chandran shook his head. “Surya.”

“What’s that then?”

He pointed at the brat. “Surya.”

“You named them yourself?” Izabel supposed there were worse things he could have done. Not like they hadn’t given them plenty chances to share their proper name. “What does it mean?”

Chandran beamed at her. “Light. Like… light of sun.”

“That’s what you’re calling them? Sunshine?”

Chandran shrugged. Izabel rolled her eyes. 

The brat soaked in the sun and gave no clue over whether they approved of Chandran’s choice in name or not.

Some snippets of early interactions between my three main characters: Izabel, a former pirate captain who lost her crew and ship right before the events of the story; Surya, the unlucky kid she picks up as a hostage; and Chandran, the mage she hires to get her safely across the ocean.

India vs. Australia T20 series: complete schedule, teams, times, locations for viewing, and more

Following their disappointing performance in the ODI World Cup, Team India, captained by interim captain Surya Kumar Yadav, will play a five-match Twenty20 series against a strong Australian side. The opening game of the series will take place on November 23 at the ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Vizag. Hardik Pandya, the captain of India, has not played since the ODI World Cup due to an ankle…

[myauditionfordrphil]

Last night was something that I'll remember forever, after years of heartbreak and tears India finally lifted an ICC trophy. It's been 11 years since we lifted an ICC trophy, 13 since we lifted a World Cup and 17 since we won a T20 World Cup and after several close brushes with victory and knockout defeats we are finally the World Champions again. There are many things that I wanted to say since yesterday but I just couldn't get the time to sit down and now when I finally have time in my hands I'd like to get all my feelings out and shut up for the greater good.

First of all Rohit, what a man, what a captain. If somebody deserved the the cup it was him and seeing him collapse to the floor and slapping the turf with all his might showed just how much it ment to him.

Also how he was crying again after a finals but this time they were tears of happiness that didn't seem to stop.

The belief Rohit (and Dravid) showed in Virat, constantly backing him and saying that it's his class that matters and he'll perform in the finals. Virat being the man he is and standing up when India needed him the most and proving Rohit right.

How Virat called Anushka and kids immediately after the win (making funny faces and shedding a few tears) showing that you're never too busy.

The tightest Rohirat hug with both of them crying and refusing to let go of each other just after the win. Matlab pura tournament we were crying for a RoKo moment and we got it at the best time possible.

Bumrah falling to his knees and showing that rare burst of emotions and then immediately running to Sanjana, hugging her so tight that he lifted her off the ground.

Hardik, the man who probably had the worst 7 to 8 months of his life with a smile on his face finally letting go and crying like a child. He turned all the boos into cheers.

Rohit consoling a crying Hardik and barging into his interview to give him a kiss on the cheek (and the way Hardik immediately melted) god how they bashed all the rumours.

Siraj not even being in the playing 11 but falling down to the ground sobbing and being speechless during the interviews.

Also streets will never forget Axar's contribution, Bapu served India again and man deserved every bit of credit.

Shivam Dube with his quickfire and crucial 21 run innings gutted all those who questioned his selection.

Arshdeep celebrating the win after being one of the best bowlers in the tournament in full Punjabi style. The tunak tunak bhangra with Virat will always be a part of numerous edits.

A teary Rohit hugging Virat again.

The Rohika hug omg how I love them.

Rahul Dravid showing more emotions than he did in the past 30 years and celebrating like a madman on his last day as the Indian coach. He truly had his Chak De moment and he bloody deserved it.

Surya taking the bloody catch of the tournament and giving us the chance to tell our future generations about the catch that helped us win the cup the same way our elder generation told us of the iconic Kapil Dev catch.

Virat giving the trophy to Dravid and the whole team lifting him as a tribute.

Rohit running into the ground with tricolour and plunging it into the ground, hoisting the flag in Barbados.

Kuldeep telling Rohit to do the Messi walk to lift the cup.

Rohit and Virat trashing all their rift rumours and posing with the trophy with the tricolour on their backs.

Rohit standing with Sammy on his shoulders, Virat by his side, trophy in his hands and the tricolour on his back.

Bumrah giving his medal to baby Angad and him giving Boom the softest smile.

Rahul Dravid being the Barbados ka Gunda

Sammy enjoying the lap of honour on his father's shoulder.

Rohit sitting down and eating some of the soil to relish the taste of victory. The whole world saw how important this was for him and how he cherished the very soil where they won instead of putting his legs on the trophy.

Virat making the day bittersweet by announcing his retirement from t20i after winning the POTM. The man who literally carried India in t20i's and t20 world cup said goodbye to the format leaving us all a little more teary.

Rohit letting Virat have his moment and instead casually announcing his retirement from t20i and making us cry even more. The man who scored 100s in t20 for fun left the stage with the trophy in his hand.

RoKo posing with the flag and the trophy being the last time they were seen together in t20s for India. Our childhood has really ended and so did an era. Extremely happy that they bid adieu with the trophy in their hands.

Jaddu following their steps and announcing his retirement from t20s also. All the seniors from the team are gone and passed the baton on, India will definitely miss it's best fielder in the t20 field.

All the Indians pouring out their love on social media not caring how big of a celebrity they are.

MS Dhoni making us realise that we need to win a world cup to make him remember his instagram password. Yer the fact that he never posted his pic with the trophy but posted India lifting the title under Rohit's captaincy at 1.30 am.

The entirety of India spilling onto the streets, screaming, crying, waving the tiranga and celebrating the win with raw emotions.

There are so many moments that I missed because yesterday was filled with raw emotions and beautiful moments so please don't hesitate to add you own. Our men in blue proved that for every 19th November there is a 29th June. I always complained (especially after 2023 wc) that how it was unfair that my grandfather got see India lifting the cup and so did my father but never me and last night all my complaints went out of the window. It was a night that I'll tell my kids about, a night that no Indian will ever forget, a night which was made even more special with the whole desiblr celebrating together. I read somewhere that "Indians have red blood running in their veins but they bleed blue" and this statement couldn't get any truer as our mental health really depended on these 11 men in blue. And finally after ages we closed our campaign with the cup in our hands and finally our legends had a deserving farewell. Bleed blue 💙

[ad_1] Hardik Pandya, Rohit Sharma for MI and MS Dhoni, Ruturaj Gaikwad for CSK (PC: X) They are the two most successful franchises in the IPL. Both Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians have won the title five times each, and as regards the retentions ahead of the 2025 mega auction, the tournament’s two biggest teams had clear-cut strategies. Unlike some other franchises, there was no late drama over certain players. Both CSK and MI management knew what they were doing. Chennai Super Kings Players retained: Ruturaj Gaikwad (Rs 18 crore), Ravindra Jadeja (Rs 18 crore), Matheesha Pathirana (Rs 13 crore), Shivam Dube (Rs 12 crore) and MS Dhoni (Rs 4 crore) What the retained players bring to the table: Stability, quality and a wealth of experience. The captaincy baton was passed from Dhoni to Gaikwad last season and by making the latter their top retention, CSK have given him a clear vote of confidence, a fallow 2024 notwithstanding. The biggest thing for the Chennai-based franchise is that Dhoni has decided to continue for one more season. The former CSK captain, the team’s guiding light, didn’t want to block a big amount of money to affect his franchise’s auction purse. The BCCI bringing back the uncapped player rule helped matters. As for Jadeja, apart from being a world-class all-rounder, he is ‘family’. Dube was in scintillating hitting form in the last IPL, while Pathirana is the team’s designated death bowler. For the Latest Sports News: Click Here MS Dhoni in action for CSK (PC: X) Disadvantages of letting go of some key players: Devon Conway couldn’t play the 2024 IPL due to a finger injury and it affected CSK’s performance. Not retaining Rachin Ravindra, who is in the form of his life, might hurt CSK as well. Mystery spinner Maheesh Theekshana isn’t part of the list either. CSK rely on spin-choke at Chepauk, and the Sri Lankan was an important cog in the wheel. Players CSK would like to buy back at the auction: Conway, Rachin and Theekshana for sure. Also, Sameer Rizvi and Deepak Chahar. Outside that, the franchise is likely to go hard for Washington Sundar. And it is learnt that Rishabh Pant is also on CSK’s radar.

Mumbai Indians Players retained: Jasprit Bumrah (Rs 18 crore), Suryakumar Yadav (Rs 16.35 crore), Hardik Pandya (Rs 16.35 crore), Rohit Sharma (Rs 16.30 crore) and Tilak Verma (Rs 8 crore) What the retained players bring to the table: MI have managed to keep their band together. Last season was a period of ferment at the franchise, after Pandya replaced Rohit as captain. Issues have been taken care of and once again it’s a happy dressing-room. It is learnt that Mahela Jayawardene, who has returned as the team’s head coach, was of the view that Bumrah, Surya, Pandya and Rohit should get equal amounts. But Rohit felt that the current Indian T20 players deserve higher amounts. Mumbai Indians’ official post on their retentions (PC: MI/X) He has retired from T20Is, and accordingly, Bumrah, Surya and Pandya were made the first three retained players. By making Bumrah their top pick, MI have made a statement that the fast bowler is the jewel in the crown. Also, they have addressed the captaincy issue with authority by naming Pandya the skipper for the 2025 season. The MI management will take heart from the fact they have managed to retain the ‘fab four’. Disadvantages of letting go of some key players: MI might miss Ishan Kishan’s power-punch at the top and Tim David’s prowess as a finisher. Also, without Kishan, they will have to go for a good wicketkeeper. Players MI would like to buy back at the auction: Kishan and David would be high on the franchise’s list. Also, uncapped players like Naman Dhir, Nehal Wadhera and Ansul Kamboj. MI, however, have just Rs 45 crore remaining for auction.

[ad_1] Hardik Pandya, Rohit Sharma for MI and MS Dhoni, Ruturaj Gaikwad for CSK (PC: X) They are the two most successful franchises in the IPL. Both Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians have won the title five times each, and as regards the retentions ahead of the 2025 mega auction, the tournament’s two biggest teams had clear-cut strategies. Unlike some other franchises, there was no late drama over certain players. Both CSK and MI management knew what they were doing. Chennai Super Kings Players retained: Ruturaj Gaikwad (Rs 18 crore), Ravindra Jadeja (Rs 18 crore), Matheesha Pathirana (Rs 13 crore), Shivam Dube (Rs 12 crore) and MS Dhoni (Rs 4 crore) What the retained players bring to the table: Stability, quality and a wealth of experience. The captaincy baton was passed from Dhoni to Gaikwad last season and by making the latter their top retention, CSK have given him a clear vote of confidence, a fallow 2024 notwithstanding. The biggest thing for the Chennai-based franchise is that Dhoni has decided to continue for one more season. The former CSK captain, the team’s guiding light, didn’t want to block a big amount of money to affect his franchise’s auction purse. The BCCI bringing back the uncapped player rule helped matters. As for Jadeja, apart from being a world-class all-rounder, he is ‘family’. Dube was in scintillating hitting form in the last IPL, while Pathirana is the team’s designated death bowler.

Oh a cricketers in college fest AU is very interesting ngl!! So there's of course many departments/committees within a college fest.

The fest heads or sorta presidents is someone who has to take charge at everything. So somebody who is a good leader, a good captain. So MSD maybe? Or if we're looking at current captains, then probably Pat. Maybe Pat and MSD can share the work since often we have two heads for each committee. Ooh Rohit might work too. And so could Kane.

Then there's the events team, who are the think tanks of the fest. They're responsible for coming up with creative ideas for games and events. So whoever is innovative works. I feel two of Jos, Surya and ABD might work here, because they're described as very innovative and out of the box batters. Or even Steve and Marnus might work.

The social media heads are of course responsible for increasing the reach of the club and must necessarily be good with social media and posting. So maybe VK and Warner? VK isn't one of the most followed sportsmen in the world for no reason, and Warner's social media game is pretty strong too.

The finance and sponsorship heads are obviously responsible for getting sponsorships, and managing the finances of the group. I feel Pat has done a business degree irl, so he'll be brilliant here. And we can trust Joey to be a tight Yorkie and drive a hard bargain for certain prices 🤣

The security heads need to ensure no fights break out during an event, break up any fights that do break out, and if any celebrities have been invited then give them the required protection. Nobody better than Ben for this honestly. Who can be Ben's co-head

As for the arts and decorations heads, we need someone who's great at drawing, painting and digital art. Any cricketers who jump out?

Ok, so this is a lot more intense than anything I had at uni 😂😂
