Third person's pov:

"India needs twenty six runs in six balls, do you think that it's possible after Manasi's wicket in the last over? That was really harsh blow for the Indian girls, the forty run partnership between (Y/N) and Manasi broke and it is definitely a moment of fear for the Indian fans" One of the commentators spoke "It really seems difficult but I think if (Y/N) is still on the field then anything is possible, even scoring a twenty six in just six balls" The other commentator expressed his thoughts.

On the field stood the young cricket sensation, (Y/N) (L/N) in all her glory as she stared at the fielding placement of the other team. She analysed it quickly and called her fellow batter closer. It was going to be difficult task scoring twenty six in one over (six balls) they had to hit four sixes to reach a twenty four and all of it had to be done without a wicket. India had to make a total score of 180 runs to win the match and right now they stood at 154 runs with 7 wickets while (Y/N) alone had scored 78 runs and needed twenty two runs for her century.

"You stay there and do not run until I say so, I am planning on hitting some huge shots and try my luck" (Y/N) ordered her teammate who nodded. All of the team members were used to such behaviour from her on the cricket ground. They both walked back to their positions and (Y/N) got ready to hit the ball. When the bowler made the delivery, (Y/N) hit it straight over the third man, scoring a four. The second ball (Y/N) hit a long six. The crowd roared, now they needed sixteen runs in four balls. People sat on their seats with fingers crossed, praying and cheering for the (H/C)ette who happened to be the apple of everyone's eyes.

On the third ball (Y/N) walked out of the crease and hit the ball with the centre of the bat, gaining six more runs. The next ball was a four, everyone cheered, the opponent team got pressurised as the captain made changes in the fielding setup. 'Six runs two balls, I can do it' (Y/N) thought to herself as she readied herself for the next ball. Unfortunately it was a dot ball. The nerves rose all around the stadium, people were on their toes wanting to know the outcome.

'Six runs, six runs. It is now or never (Y/N) your country will win the world cup if you do it' were the words that were repeating in her head she gripped her bat tightly as she got in the position. She had to make her team win this tournament, she had to be useful in her last match for her country. The ball was delivered and everything became blur for the sixteen year old girl, all she could see was the ball. It felt that the time had slowed down, she couldn't hear anything until the bat hit the ball with a loud 'thud' suddenly everything was normal again and she had just hit a six.

She could see her team running towards the ground clapping and shouting in excitement. The crowd screamed as flags of India could be seen swaying high and proud. She dropped to her knees as she raised her bat and helmet up in the sky. She had just completed her seventh t20 century, tears blurred her eyes as she finally let out a shout of victory and kissed the flag on her helmet.

"And with that sparkling six, India has won the the T20 Women's Cricket World cup! The roars of the crowd are a sign of how much the people anticipated this win! (Y/N), the brilliant girl, the princess has completed her seventh century in the T20 matches! Bravo to everyone on the team! Bravo to (Y/N) for her excellent performance!" The commentator exclaimed as they cheered the winning team.

(Y/N)'s teammates had joined her on the ground and hugged her while patting her back. She laughed along with them and cheered, she ran across the field with her bat high up in the air looking at her fans waving at them.

The Indian team was called up on the stage to take their well deserved trophy. The girls held each other's hands as they watched their captain raise it up high in the sky, they clapped and congratulated each other. "The title of the Woman of the Match goes to (Y/N) (L/N)!" the said girl received many head pats as her teammates pushed her to get her award. (Y/N) walked over with a small sincere smile and shook the hand of the award presenter, she took the trophy from him and moved forward to give her interview.

"How do you feel after giving such a splendid performance out there Ms. (Y/N)?" the interviewer asked "It definitely feels good, this is what I worked so hard for and seeing it come to life makes me really happy" she answered "That is good to hear, now what are your thoughts about the other team" "Well they definitely played very well, they had us in a chokehold for some time out there and made it seem that we might actually lose so I have to give the Australian team huge respect since they proved that they are one of the best teams out there" (Y/N) answered, there was a lot of sincerity in her voice as she praised the opponent team. "That is indeed true, would you like to tell us something about your future plans with the team?" there it was the question which she wanted to avoid.

(Y/N) licked her lip and took a deep breath "Regarding my future endeavors, I have a news. I feel really sad to inform everyone out there that I will be leaving the team to pursue my high school studies abroad. It is a very unhappy moment for me, to leave a game because of which people gave me so much love but it has to be done. I am truly very grateful to my teammates, my coaches, the management and specially my supporters for all the love and care that has been showered over me. I will miss each and every one of you with all my heart. Thank you for everything." She ended the small speech with a big warm smile to show her appreciation towards her colleagues and fans. She got off the stage and soon she could hear her name being chanted by the spectators. She felt tears blur her eyes as she walked over to the middle of the field, joined her hands and bowed her head low to show her respect towards them.

This journey maybe short but the outcome was special. Now, she was going to start another one in Japan.
