"A breath of life they desperately need.." "But who will take this stroke.." "Ball!" "Ball!" "Saini has the ball, but captain Kabir is taking the stroke himself.." "Maybe a good decision." "India's best player is its last hope.." "coach, is this the same team that defeated Pakistan last year?" "No comments." "Do you not think our team is taking it too easy?" "Please, please, no comments." "Hey, look, it is Kabir!" " Kabir!" "He is here!" " Kabir.." "Kabir.." "Kabir, do you ha?" "e anything to say about such an embarrassing defeat?" "Do you really believe Pakistan's performance was better?" "Maybe." " Why did you take the penalty stroke yourself?" "I made a mistake" "Rumour has it that the Pakistani players are your good friends.." "you were the only Indian to congratulate them after the match.." "Excuse me!" "People are saying.." "there is a rumour that you.." "or someone else in the Indian team has deliberately thrown this match?" "Excuse me!" "Do you think we lost because someone sold out?" "What!" "What did you say?" "Kabir Khan, has someone sold out their team?" "Sold out!" "You piece of.." "How dare you.." "How can you disrespect the media!" "Disrespect the media!" "You son of a.. come here." "You do not know how to treat journalists!" "You bloody -.. sold out come back here!" "You just witnessed a frustrated captain of the loosing team attack the media violently." "His outburst cannot hide the fact that there.." "..is definitely something fishy going on." "We have our answers." "But it is now up to you to decide whether" "Kabir Khan has played dirty with the country or not." "Satyavrat Yadav, National Stadium, New Delhi.." "News from the world of sports." "Pakistan has become the new Hockey World champions after defeating India by one goal." "Today the chairman of the Hockey Association denounced" "Kabir Khan, declared he did his country wrong." "And all this is thanks to you.." "the Indian public." "We have two special guests.." "Down with Kabir!" "What do you think?" "Did Kabir Khan fix the match?" "Do not know if he fixed the match, but we lost because of him." "And what would you say?" "These people should be hung upside down." "And you?" "These kind of people should have moved to Pakistan during the partition." "Down with Kabir!" "The public is upset with the team's performance." "And Kabir Khan has conveniently disappeared." "He was not at the hockey stadium, nor the Sports Authority of India campus." "Where is Kabir Khan?" "Do not look back mother, let us go." "How can I not, Kabir.." "Your grandfather saved every penny to build this house.." "Your father's first pay check went into making these windows.." "I stepped into this home as a young bride.."

"My divine master, you are my pride" "My master, my life is yours to take" "So, what have you decided?" "Uttamji, you are always harping on the same thing." "What should we do about the coach?" "Hey, why don't you become their coach?" "The Women's Hockey World cup is just three months away." "The team cannot just go without any training.." "No matter how much you train them, they will loose.." "The Indian Women's hockey team has never achieved anything and it never will." "It is a government trip." "Why do you not go as their coach?" "The team will be out in a couple of matches." "Exit!" "You and your wife could enjoy a holiday." "I do not get it - why do you not take women's hockey seriously." "And we do no get why you take it so seriously." "Uttamji, Indian women are born to cook and clean." "They cannot run around in short skirts." "How can an Association member say such things?" "It is because we are in the Association and have travelled around the world, that we can say such things." "Look, you have done your part and selected the top 1 6 indian players." "Punjab, Tamil Nadu, Jharkand, Andhra, Railways." "You have even been to remote Manipur and Mizoram." "But now where will you find a coach?" "From the moon?" "is this also the girls' fault?" "No, lt is not the girls' fault." "It is the fault, of people like you with expectations from them." "No sponsors.. no viewers.." "no TV coverage, nor media.." "Now which coach will want to jump into this mess to ruin his career?" "is there anyone?" "No one." "There is one man." "Who?" "Kabir." "Who?" "Kabir Khan." "The Kabir Khan who.." "Yes that one." "Since when has he developed an interest in women's hockey?" "He even left men's hockey years ago." "No one has seen him for six-seven years." "You can see him now." "Where?"

"He wants to be the coach of the Indian Women's Hockey Team." "You are not a child Mr. Kabir Khan." "You know in a country like ours, a women's team exists just as a formality, not a reality." "Your reputation is already.." "And you wish to redeem your name by coaching this team." "A team that is not fit to play against European high schools." "This is exactly the team I want." "I do not understand.." "I do not think you would." "So shall I consider myself hired?" "In any case, you do not have another coach." "I have done all I could, but you should think about it." "I have." "Kabir this not a team." "It is a graveyard." "Why are you burying in it?" "This team will never get a better coach than you." "But think about yourself." "I am thinking about myself." "You have changed." "You have changed a lot." "I have not changed." "Nothing has." "You know we did not lose that match because of you." "You did all you could to score a goal against Pakistan" "But they scored against me, my team, my country.. and my family." "Everybody is allowed one mistake." "Everybody?" "Kabir, why have you come back?" "To help this team to win the World cup." "Which is impossible.." "is what needs to be done." "when are your 1 6 girls coming?" "They should reach here tomorrow morning from their respective states." "States.. nothing has changed." "There were states then, there are states now.." "There you go.." "Well ma'am, once again it looks like the Association has dumped all of India on us." "So these are the best?" "That's what they say." "Wasn't she the goalkeeper for the Railways?" "What was her name?" "Vidya.." "Vidya Sharma." "Heard she got married and quit hockey?" "Well she's here.." "1 00 rupees?" "My foot!" "is the meter for decoration?" "The meter is broken, you will have to give me 1 00." "I will give you 1 00 slaps!" " What sort of talk is that?" "The kind you will understand!" "Take the 50 or I will shove the hockey stick!" "Don't get angry." "Your head will explode one of these days." "But grandma, you are not saying anything to him." "is he my baby or are you?" "I am." " So?" "cool down, come, come.. drink it in." "Hey!" "What the.. you brats!" "Hey Komal!" "These pansies!" "Thought I'd show them how to play!" "You haven't come here to play with boys!"

"Oh really?" "can I go?" "What?" "Ho ho!" "Man!" "Look at that vanilla ice cream amidst all this chocolate!" "Must be heading to a disco or a nightclub.." "Looks like they lost their way."

"When she whacks the ball hard, it takes four girls to stop it." "Admiring your enemy?" "Please do not pull my leg, didi." "The coach has already stopped us from playing." "And then.." "Oh man.." "Oh.. oh!" "come didi, let us play.." "If we play, we will play in our own positions." "Shut up and sit down." "God, look there is bull chasing her.." "You've already scored your forty two goals. I haven't even started." "Sir let me also get a pardon from the memsahib." "Hey missy, do you want to accept my apology?" "Or do you prefer going to the jail?" " What?" "Look, if you do not pardon me, I will fight you.." "in the fight either I will smash your head or you will smash mine and we will have to go to jail.." "Anyway.. so tell me do you accept my apology or should we go to the police?" "Time is up. come on!" "Krishnaji, is anyone injured?" "Ok, now we will reverse the play order."

"Wasn't he the team captain?" "captain?" "He was Pakistan's captain, in an Indian uniform." "What are you saying?" "It is not only me." "Everyone says so." "So how did they make him the coach?" "This is India." "Anything is possible." "He mentioned taking us to the World cup." "He has already sold his country once." "This time he may just sell us as well!" "You guys will keep scrubbing shoes for the rest of your life." "come, see who is downstairs." " Who?" "Take a wild guess ls it a film star?" "Abhimanyu Singh!" "You are kidding!" "What!" "Go see for yourself." "Bro is here to meet someone." "He maybe your 'brother'!" "But who is he here for?" "come!" "Let us see!" "Let us go" "She is a sly one.. did not tell anyone she is his fiancee.." "coach has given her leave till tomorrow morning.." "Wow!" "Leave till tomorrow morning." "Why, whatever will they do all night long?" "It is confirmed." "They are making me the Vice captain." "Bullshit!" "Really?" "I do not believe this!" "I knew it." "How long will these clowns hold out." "Vice captain of the Indian frikkin cricket team!" "Now you watch how I teach all these seniors." "You see who rules this team now!" "Get out of the way everyone!" "It is my turn now." "Why do you not quit all this now?" "Quit what?" "Your silly stick and ball game come on baby, forget about it now." "Forget about it and do what?" "Do what?" "Live it up!" "Be with me!" "Travel the world with me." "Live life king-size, with the King." "As the wife of the vice captain of the Indian cricket team!" "Wife?" "Oh, forgot to tell you." "Had a chat with your dad over drinks yesterday." "I told him I am all for it." "He said we do not want to delay it anymore." "So it is all fixed." "Anyway, my career is all set." "And what about my career?" "What?" "What about my career?" "What career?" "Abhi, I am in the Indian hockey team" "Yeah but that is not a career, Preeti." "That is just a stupid game." "So is cricket" "Preeti!" "I know you like to think of your little dribbling and stick work as a big thing." "But let us face it - it is not exactly cricket is it?" "Look at her enjoying herself!" "Damn it, let us go play." "come on, we have been rotting on this same bench for the last 7 days." "We are players, not Association members who sit around." "come on. come on!" "I will show him my game!" "If he is not forced to make me a forward again, my name is not Bindia Naik." "Or his is not Tuglaq." "Sorry sir, it will not happen again." "We are sorry." "Sorry" "Ok, you can play center half." "Thank God sir." "The situation is under control now." "No, Krishnaji. lt is just about to go out of control." "Right!" "Left!" "Right!" "Left!" "Faster!" "Faster!" "Faster!" "Run faster!" "Move." "Faster!" "Faster!" "Run faster!" "I mean FAST!" "Right, left, right!" "To the ball!" "Ok, let's go!" "Right!" "Left!" "Pass the ball!" "Make a pass!" "Pass, pass, pass, pass, pass, pass PASS!" "Thank you." "Trap and pass!" "Move the ball ahead!" "come on, move it!" "No player will keep the ball for more than 5 seconds." "can you count?" "5-4-3-2-1 !" "Faster!" "Faster!" "Run faster!" "I mean FAST!" "Quick, quick!" "Faster, faster," "What is your problem?" "Do you not see the ball, or are you afraid of it?" "Want to practice with a tennis ball for a few days?" "Left, right, left!" "Leave the ball, sit!" "Go, right!" "Go to hell!" "Trap, look and pass!" "Stop, look and move it ahead.." "Do not move yourself forward." "Move the ball forward!" "Do one thing pick up the ball." "pick it UP!" "Put it in your pocket and go home." "Go play on the chandigarh team from tomorrow." "No need to play here." "And you!" "What are you so angry about?" "Raise your game first and then raise your voice." "Once more if I hear you shout out, you will be out!" "Hey you!" "Why are you the center half?" "Because you are the senior most player in the team." "Your job is not to push the forward line but to teach them." "And one more thing." "There can only be one bully in every team." "And for this team, it is me." "You!" "call this a pass?" "You are only good enough to plough fields in your village." "Forget about hockey!" "And why are you standing around?" "Go get the ball!" "Right, left, right, left, right, left!" "Relax!" "Nethra!" "Krishnaji!" "Give her water and take her out!" "Quickly!" "So!" "You are India's best players!" "You will go to the World championship!" "Hah!" "To raise India's flag!" "The Association is right." "How will this lot ever play hockey!" "They cannot play as one team." "How the hell will they ever win a World championship!" "What are you staring at?" "She is unconscious not dead!" "Krishnaji!" "Take her away!" "Out!" "I had said it on the first day." "This team needs only those who first play for India, then for their team mates and then if there is any life left, for themselves." "Let's start again." "Right!" "So!" "Did you see what happens when you let the coach think he is God!" "The blood will not stop." "I warned you guys." "Do you want to eat something?" "Wake up at 4am, run for 20 km." "And on the field, he does not let us play." "What kind of a camp is this?" "Does it hurt a lot?" "Here!" "It hurts here." "He insulted us!" "Hit with the ball!" "He knows damn well you cannot speak English." "But you ha?" "e to learn it!" "What you have not learnt in your whole life, learn it in a day!" "Else get out of the team." "Hey, he cannot throw you out!" "Do not worry, I will teach you." "How can he cut you out of the team?" "What do you say Aliya?" "No freedom to eat, to move around and when we play, he insults us." "This is not a primary school." "Each girl is a National level player." "A champion from her state - that is why she is here." "If there is any failure amongst us, lt is him." "Sold his team out in the World cup!" "Was thrown out of the team, the country." "What else can I say?" "I am ashamed to say any more." "Does it hurt?" "I have a spray.." "How is Nethra?" "OK." "The doctor says she will be back to practice in a couple of days." "Practice?" "Have you lost it?" "From now on, there will be no practice!" "There will be no practice from tomorrow!" "Look here.."
