Title: Cricket Reborn: The Rise of a Legend

Genre: Sports Fiction | Rebirth | System | Coming-of-Age | Business | Romance

---

Synopsis:

In his past life, Aryan Varma was a brilliant stock market analyst—wealthy, respected, and obsessed with cricket. His one regret? He could only be a fan. He never played professionally, never stepped onto a stadium pitch, never wore the Indian jersey. His heart beat for the game—especially for his beloved Royal Challengers Bangalore—but life never gave him the chance to play.

Until fate did.

Reborn in the year 1992 into a wealthy and loving Indian family, Aryan awakens as a child with all memories from his past life intact. But this time, fate offers more than a second chance—it gives him a Cricket System, a mysterious interface that tracks his stats, skills, rivalries, and quests to become the greatest cricketer in the world.

With his sharp mind, future knowledge, and the Cricket System by his side, Aryan begins an incredible journey from school-level cricket to state selection, from Ranji Trophy glory to the India U-19 team, and eventually to international stardom. Along the way, he makes a name for himself as a genius all-rounder—a rare player who can bat like Sachin, bowl like Bumrah, and even keep wickets when needed.

The story weaves intense cricketing action with deep emotional bonds:
– His unshakable love and respect for his supportive mother, his protective father, and his brilliant business-savvy sister, who manages his empire as he conquers the field.
– His first love, whose warmth brings balance to his driven life.
– His bond with cricketing icons like MS Dhoni, Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, and Hardik Pandya—as both teammates and legends to compete with.
– His fierce rivalry with Rehan Sharma, another cricket prodigy who pushes Aryan to his limits.

The novel also explores Aryan’s financial genius, as he uses his stock market experience to gain early financial freedom and build a powerful business empire—guided by strategy but grounded in family.

From his childhood debut in U-10 tournaments to IPL auctions, where he’s eventually bought by his dream team RCB, Aryan’s journey is filled with triumphs, heartbreaks, last-ball thrillers, personal losses, epic victories, and the relentless pursuit of greatness.

His story culminates in him becoming the captain of India and RCB, leading his teams to multiple T20, ODI, and Test World Cups, shattering records, and redefining cricket forever.

In the end, as Aryan takes off his jersey for the last time in front of a teary-eyed nation, he isn’t just a cricketer.

He’s a legend.

By six months old, Aryan Varma had already become an anomaly in his household.

His mind, sharpened by memories of another life and enhanced by the Cricket System, was operating on a level no one around him could fathom.

He couldn't talk. But he could think. Analyze. Observe.

Every toy became equipment. Every motion had purpose.

It was a lazy Sunday afternoon when Aryan, wobbling on two feet, grabbed his hollow plastic bat. He steadied himself against the crib railing and swung—not like a child flailing, but with a smooth, compact motion, almost textbook.

Aparna turned, half-smiling, expecting baby chaos. But then she froze.

The grip. The stance. The drive. It was primitive—but purposeful.

"Is he… copying Sachin?" Rajan muttered, stunned by what he saw.

Aryan's body was far from ready—but his mind, and now reflexes, were beginning to sync with his vision.

Then came the event that changed everything: his first live cricket match.

India vs South Africa. A friendly exhibition game at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bangalore. Early 1993. No IPL. No T20s. Just whites, red ball, and pure test cricket energy.

The Verma family attended the match through a business friend's invitation. Aparna hesitated at first, but Aryan had always been calm in public.

Wrapped in a soft red woollen scarf and wearing tiny ear guards, Aryan was taken to the stadium—his first visit to the very ground where he dreamed of playing.

The moment he entered, his system reacted instantly.

Scanning Player: Rahul Dravid (Domestic Debutant)

From his seat—cribbed in his mother's lap—Aryan watched every movement. The calm intensity in Dravid's footwork. The precision in his leaves. He didn't know him well from his past life. But now, he saw it: this man was special.

Mini Perk Progress: Intuitive Timing – 62%

Grip changes. Head positioning. Shoulder alignment. Even bowler run-ups.

It was better than any simulation.

And in that moment, one truth echoed inside him:

Back home that night, the air still smelt of roasted peanuts and stadium grass in his mind.

Aryan lay in his crib, his bat-shaped toy next to him like a sword. The system buzzed once more.

He gripped the toy tighter, smiling.

In his past life, he would've watched this game from a cheap office screen, trading stocks between overs. Cheering helplessly.

He wouldn't be cheering. He'd be playing.
