"Aadvi!" SRK called out as Aadvika got out of her cab.
"Sir." she greeted.
"I almost thought that you were going to ditch the match." He said as he held her hands and took her inside the hotel.
"Sir, I wanted to say something." she urged making SRK stop in his tracks.
"Go on."
"Sir, it's just--" she hesitated a bit. SRK softly smiled at her.
"Speak Aadvi."
"It's just I am a huge fan of MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma. So can I support MI instead of KKR?" SRK looked at her amused.
"Fine but don't cry when my team wins." Aadvi smiled at his words.
"If they win." she cockily said. SRK chuckled at her words and guided her towards the room where the team was waiting for her.
"Guys," SRK called, making all the players look at him. "This is Aadvika, my co-star."
Aadvika could see a look of recognition on everyone's face.
"Aadvika this is Dinesh Karthik, captain of the team." One by one SRK introduced her to the team players.
"And this is Shubman Gill." SRK said as Aadvi and Shubman shook hands. Their gaze lingered on each other for a moment too long.
"I know you." she said staring at his face.
"You do?"
"U-19 India vs Pakistan, 102 not out?"
"That would be me." Gill smiled at her.
"You still want to support MI?" SRK questioned her. She turned to look at him.
"Yes."
"You won't be supporting us on the stands?" Shubman couldn't help but ask.
"No, she won't." SRK answered for her. "Because she thinks that we don't stand a chance in front of her Rohit."
"We will prove you wrong." Dinesh said with confidence.
"We'll see." she arrogantly said.
"Sir, allow me." SRK nodded at her, allowing her to leave the room. She was walking through the lobby when she heard someone call out her name. Aadvika turned around and saw Shubman standing behind her.
"Aadvika," he began. "Are you free right now?" Aadvika contemplated for a bit.
"Yes." Shubman smiled at her. "That's great. Would like to look around the hotel with me?"
Aadvika gave Shubman a look that basically screamed 'I-know-what-you-are-doing' but nevertheless agreed.
"So you have watched my U-19 match?" he tried to make a conversation with her.
"Hmm." she hummed.
"What did you think about me?"
"You were quite good in the match. I mean you single-handedly made the Indian team win." Shubman smiled at her words. They walked for a few minutes with a comfortable silence engulfing them.
"Will you leave Kolkata next week with ShahRukh sir?" he enquired.
"No." Aadvika stared at the paintings on the wall of the lobby. "I'll be leaving for Mumbai tomorrow morning."
"And do what in Mumbai?" he asked as they walked next to the pool.
"I don't know, maybe try to fulfill my dream of being a rebel child." she muttered under her breath. Shubman sighed at her.
"I remember my days of rebel. Partying, sleeping around, it seems life a far etched dream to me now." Aadvika couldn't help but scoff at his words.
"Why don't you just say it?"
"Say what?" Shubman looked at her bewildered.
"That you want to sleep with me." Aadvika looked directly in his eyes. Being 5'9" was a great help now.
"Even though you look smoking hot in this kurta and jeans, what makes you think that I want to sleep with you?" he questioned as he leaned against the wall.
"I don't know, maybe because you have checking me out ever since you have seen me but just so you know Gill, I am not that easy to get."
"Why do you think I made the effort of talking to you?" Shubman perked his brow. Aadvika snorted at his words.
"You seriously think that making this awkward conversation will get me on your bed?"
"What do you want me to do?" Aadvika thought for a moment.
"If you win today's match then I am all yours." Shubman laughed at her words.
"Oh darling, I will advise you to keep yourself ready for the night."
"We'll see about that Gill." she challenged.
"Of course we will." he smirked at her and left. Aadvika looked at his disappearing figure. She took out her phone from her purse and called her best friend, Aditi.
"Aads!" Aditi greeted. "How are you and how's Kolkata?"
"Well, I am miserable and Kolkata--" she looked around to see children and families playing in the pool. "well, Kolkata is beautiful."
"That's great. When are you coming back?" Aditi questioned. Aadvika could hear the faint whistle of pressure cooker in the background.
"By tomorrow evening." Aadvika sat on the bench kept nearby. She stayed a silent for a minute.
"Aditi promise me you won't yell or freak out." Aditi tensed at her words.
"What is it Aads?"
"Just promise me." Aditi repeated her words.
"I-I okay, I promise."
"I am going to sleep with Shubman Gill tonight."
"WHAT THE FUCK?!" Aditi yelled.
"You promised me Aditi." Aadvika reminded.
"You are going to sleep as in really 'sleep' with him?"
"Yup." Aadvika confirmed.
"Have you gone mad Aadvika ? That boy is known for sleeping around."
"Who cares Aditi. It's not like I am going to marry him or something. It's just a one night stand which may or may not happen." Aditi pulled a chair from her dining table and sat down.
"Give me the full details, Aads." Aadvika narrated her the whole conversation between her and Shubman.
"You have gone mad." was the first thing that left Aditi's mouth.
"I am not mad Aditi. I am eighteen years old, I can hook up with whoever I want to, it's not like I am the only one. Even you did the same thing."
"I hooked up with my boyfriend." Aditi corrected. "And do you even know what it is to hook up with a cricketer?"
"You are the one to talk." Aadvika retorted.
"Ishan and I are different, Aadvika." Aditi sighed. "Look, hooking up is not wrong but the man you are hooking up with, is."
"The man who happens to be your boyfriend's bestfriend." Aadvika reminded.
"Exactly." Aditi pointed out. "He is Ishan's bestfriend which is why I know him quiet well. He has a habit of kiss and tell. If you hook up with him, he won't mind boasting about it to everyone which will be not good for your career, given your sanskari image."
"I can hook up and still be sanskari." Aditi let out an irritated sigh at her words.
"How are you sure that he will hook up with you? I mean you have challenged him to win the match first." Aditi questioned.
"KKR will win the match today."
"How are you so sure?"
"The confidence in his eyes spoke volumes." Aadvika said as she thought about his eyes.
"Are you sure about it Aads?" Aditi once again questioned.
"I am." Aadvika confidently said.
"Fine, just make sure his phone is switched off and there no cameras in the room." Aadvika smiled at her best friend's words.
"I will."
"Good." Aditi looked back at the clock in her room. "It's almost lunch time now."
"Go and eat your lunch, I'll call you after landing tomorrow."
"I love you Aads." Aditi said.
"I love you too." Aadvika cut the call and went back to her room, desperately waiting for the night to arrive.

The underlying mix has been messed up absolutely horrible by the Kolkata Knight Riders the chiefs and none of the players that they endeavored rather than Venkatesh Iyer sorted out some way to perform.

In a perfect world, for the last three games, he will be given a fair fight the middle with Sheldon Jackson returning as the appointed wicket-chief.
Concerning the Mumbai Indians, the Kumar Kartikeya Singh experience didn't really work and therefore either Hrithik Shokeen or Jaydev Unadkat should be brought back as a standard bowling decision. Furthermore, Kieron Pollard should be told to play transparently considering the way that regardless, he is eating up a huge load of movements.
