When MS announced that he is stepping down as captain...All of them know it would happen one day but then no one knows when until MS suddenly announces that he is stepping down. They celebrated like crazy that evening.
Rohit even after being out of the team due to injury joined them because of course injury can't keep him from being away on Mahi Bhai special day. His bestfriend has become Indian team caption too. so it makes it double special isn't it?
Virat for 100 times already shouted "You will always be my Captain, Mahi Bhai"
while Ro lazily said " I can't say that... Controversy hojayega. Caption or not... I will still come to you 2 AM or 2 PM with my non-existing problems, You still have to get me a cake, Still repair my bat, still press my head. You are not my captain anymore... But you can't step down from being my bhai. it was lifetime agreement and you signed it."
Virat for the first time felt Rohit is better than him with words. He wants to shout out how much bhai means to him and how it would never change. As if he wasn't already doing it but can't blame him. he was just too anxious about MS not treating him as 'his cheeku' anymore. MS denying only had a temporary effect.
1st series after Virat took over. Virat kept a video conference with everyone just to remind everyone that Mahi Bhai shouldn't be disrespected In "NO CASE" making everyone roll their eyes.
"How can any of us disrespect Mahi Bhai ever Virat Bhaiya?" Kuliya asked innocently.
"If anyone here is daring enough to do that... should also be considered," Jaddu added in a bored tone.
"Not even you captain," Harry added excitedly.
"For him, Bhai's glare is enough," Ro commented. For once not sleeping.
"Idiots..." Virat cursed.
"Listen... I have read Dada's book and... Virat added.
"You read Virat?" Rohit jolted up in shock while Jaddu started acting as if he is chocking
"and....even he felt odd and bad when he came back to team just a player... not as a captain," Virat spoke ignoring them.
"Conditions are different Virat." Bhuvi tried to talk sense.
"Are, No..." Virat started frustrated. They are not understanding.
"Guys... I guess Virat has a point." Jinks added calmly.
"Not you too Jinks." Ro brushed it off.
"Ro... He will find it new. if not anything else. he is not used to 'not being captain'. He might feel he is being overborne on Vi or us." Jinksy spoke
"woh mahi bhai hai... not Vi to overthink." Ro cut him off.
"Plus One one one one one one one one one........." Jaddu started and harry joined
Virat kicked them out of the chat. they won't understand anyway.
"Ok... So Vi mean we will make Mahi Bhai comfortable if he isn't in any case? We will be doing that Vi." Bhuvi tried to calm down Vi before Rohit says something and they fight.
"Ha, Virat Bhaiya... everything will be like before only. Only one change... Mahi Bhai will be even more proud of you... because you will be super amazing captain." Kuldeep said honestly.
And that made Virat smile... He is anxious. he is happy of course. It is every kid dream to lead India one day... But so many "what if's" in his head. He was ranting about them to Mahi Bhai when one more what if added to the list... "What if he won't be Mahi Bhai's cheeku anymore?" And he somehow can't discuss that with Bhai or anyone else.
