The match had ended in triumph, the Indian team securing a much-needed victory over the Australians. The air in the stadium was still buzzing with cheers and celebrations, but amidst all that noise, something softer, quieter, and far more meaningful had happened.
Rihi and Aashna, hidden away in the lower stands, their caps low and masks concealing half their faces, had smiled knowingly. They had witnessed something only they truly understood—their boys scoring centuries not just for the nation, but for them. For the love that had remained patient for five long months. Quietly, they slipped out through the back gate, avoiding the media frenzy that awaited near the players’ exit. No one noticed the two girls vanish into the Jaipur evening.
Meanwhile, Shubman and Abhishek, their hearts still racing from the game—and from what they believed they had seen in the crowd—boarded the team bus. As the vehicle rumbled out of the stadium, the two shared a look.
They opened Instagram.
