The inspiration for this book is my cricketing idol, Rishabh Pant, Indian cricketer! As you may know, after the accident in 2022, he suffered excruciating pain in his body and mind. But like a true phoenix bird, he has risen from the ashes and has come back to prove himself once again on the cricket field.

His passion, dedication, hard work and strong belief in himself is a great wound for me and he is my hero as a cricketer on the field, a tough warrior to achieve my goal off the field. This story is all about an emotional rollercoaster with cricket as the background.

I am going to make you immerse yourself in the lives of the players, their friendships and the challenges they face both on and off the field. It has a lot of unexpected twists and turns to nail biting moments and with some light-hearted humor and I am sure this is a saga that will keep you hooked.

We follow Charles our hero in this story though out his journey from being a inconsistent player on the field and selfish off the field to become a hero for everyone on the field and a lovable person off the field.

"A Bat and a Ball is a delightful read for cricket fans of all ages, a story that transcends the boundaries of the game to capture the essence of teamwork, determination and the joy of playing under the sun. .
