Cricket is more than just a game in India. From bartering with God for India’s win to fasting for Virat’s century, wearing a particular “lucky shirt” for a big match to not changing your seat position when the match is tight, Indians are crazy (and superstitious too) when it comes to their favourite sport. It’s easier for true-blue Indian cricket fans to control their bladder than it is to handle their emotions.

If you love cricket as much as we do, we bet you’ll relate to this video.

This video features the cast of Netflix’s original series Selection Day. The first season focused on Manju, played by Mohammad Samad and his older brother Radha, played by Yash Dholye. The two are brought to Mumbai by their father (Rajesh Tailang), who is determined to make them star cricketers. Manju hates cricket though. And his life begins to transform when he becomes friends with the wealthy and confident Javed Ansari (Karanvir Malhotra).

This edition takes the story forward and focuses on Manju’s evolution as the selection day for Under-19 Mumbai cricket team nears, and the brothers get a golden opportunity. Manju has to decide whether he wants to follow his own path by being true to himself or sacrifice his dreams for his family.

Talent: Shiv Pandit, Yash Dholye, Karanvir Malhotra & Mohammad Samad
Editor: Veeru Krishan Mohan
Gfx: Ashish Maccune
Script & Direction: Divya Talwar
