**Chapter 7: The Thrilling Conclusion**

Rohan's first-ever hat-trick had infused the SPG team with high morale. But the next batsman to come was the captain of MG, an experienced cricketer who chose to play with a passive shot. Despite Rohan's unexpected swing, the captain managed to defend well. As the captain rotated the strike, he decided to go with their experienced bowler to create an opportunity for a wicket, but both batsmen displayed solid defensive skills.

Observing that both batsmen were getting comfortable, the captain decided to recall Rohan to make a breakthrough. Rohan got another spell in the 7th over, taking advantage of the new ball to generate some outswing. However, both batsmen continued to play defensively, denying any further wickets. They then shifted their focus to target bowlers other than Rohan, who had managed to find some swing. By the end of the 15th over, the team's score stood at 80 for 3, with the captain at 35 (40) and the opener at 27 (42). Recognizing their settled stance, the captain brought in a spinner to try and create some damage.

Rohan's personal bowling spell of 4-2-6-3, including 2 maiden overs, showcased his impressive skills as a new bowler. His economical performance impressed the team, and the captain appreciated his contribution. The captain suggested that the spinners take chances to get wickets while keeping Rohan fresh for the death overs. Understanding the importance of conserving energy, Rohan returned to the field.

As the batsmen returned after the spinners' attack, they aimed to increase their strike rate by targeting the spinner. Within just 5 overs, they managed to score 50 runs at an average of 10 runs per over. The SPG captain found himself in a dilemma with limited bowling options and decided to turn to Rohan for a breakthrough. The captain questioned if Rohan could reverse swing the old ball, to which Rohan admitted his inability but offered to use pace variations.

Returning to bowl in the 16th over, Rohan found that the batsmen were well-set and had both completed their half-centuries. They decided to attack, forcing Rohan to switch to full pace. With a quick run-up, Rohan delivered a Yorker that surprised the batsman and sent the middle stump flying. The wicket exhilarated the team, and they celebrated the breakthrough. The captain, teammates, and even the batsmen acknowledged Rohan's skills.

The captain was intrigued by the sudden pace Rohan had produced and questioned why he hadn't used it earlier. Rohan explained his initial strategy of using swing with the new ball and his designation as a fast pacer. The captain encouraged him to continue performing well.

As the opener batsman returned to the pavilion, the coach inquired about Rohan's delivery. The batsman explained the extraordinary pace and swing, surprising the coach. The assistant coach shared that Rohan was a talented newcomer with little known about him.

Impressed, the head coach decided to strategize with the other batter and advised playing defensively against Rohan while targeting other bowlers. As the 6th batsman followed the coach's guidance, the SPG captain set a field with two slips to create pressure. Despite Rohan's pace, the batsman managed to survive, edging one ball to the second slip.

With the 22nd over approaching, the captain considered recalling another pace bowler to create pressure. However, the batsman remained composed, playing cautiously and securing their wickets. At the end of the 22nd over, the score was 154 for 4. Rohan's 6th over brought another maiden, and he finished with an impressive spell of 6-4-6-4.

As the SPG captain continued with pace bowling, the next 4 overs yielded no wickets. Faced with a challenging decision in the 27th over, the captain chose to gamble by bringing Rohan back for his 7th over. The move was risky, as the team had only 3 overs of pace bowling left, but the captain trusted Rohan's capabilities.

With a score of 167 for 4, the MG captain on 52, and the other batsman on 4, Rohan returned. He initially targeted the fifth wicket with slower deliveries, but the batsman managed to play defensively. Rohan's spell saw him claim 5 wickets for 179 runs at the end of the 27th over.

Rohan was replaced by a substitute to save energy for the final death over. The coach had a chat with Rohan, instructing him to keep his energy high and mix up his deliveries to keep the batsmen guessing. As the spinners took 4 wickets in the next 10 overs, the MG captain stood strong at 98 not out by the end of the 38th over.

With 2 overs left, the captain faced a crucial decision. He chose to give the experienced pacer a chance to break the partnership in the penultimate over. The pacer conceded a six off the last ball, taking the score to 230.

In the thrilling last over, SPG needed 11 runs to win. The captain consulted with Rohan about his approach, and Rohan aimed to keep the batsmen guessing by varying his deliveries. The final over saw a mix of runs, with the tension building as MG needed 4 runs from the last ball.

Rohan's final delivery resulted in a caught-out dismissal, securing a victory for SPG by just 3 runs. The SPG team celebrated Rohan's contribution and the hard-fought win.

After the match, the coach commended Rohan's performance and informed him about the U-12 training camp. Rohan expressed his gratitude, and the coach celebrated with the rest of the team. As the system sound in his head signaled the end of the match.
