Cricket trumps everything | Story by Aadvik, 11, Bangalore
Aadvik, a published 11-year-old author shares a quick story about two friends and their distraction during a game of cricket.
It was a beautiful day. Best friends Rishaan and Aadvik were playing cricket.
Suddenly, they saw some smoke coming from behind a bush. Intrigued, they went closer to realize it was a rock. Not an ordinary one, a meteor! They couldn’t believe that they had found a meteor in their society.
Rishaan had an idea. What if they sold the meteor to ISRO for money? Aadvik agreed, so they went to a scientist to figure out where it came from. To their surprise, it was fake, somebody burnt a rock and tricked them. The friends felt disappointed and decided to go back home.
Finally, they decided to play a cricket match with all their friends, which was intense and thrilling.
The contentment of playing cricket with friends beats the excitement of looking for adventures
What a fun day it was!
