Yes... I know.

This is your great plan?

-You already know all this...

What did he say?

He says if he has to get into

shape then so do you.

Don't push your luck, kid.

What did he say?

See you in the morning.

-Yeah, fat chance.

He's joking, right?

What time is it?

Why are you after my life?

Did the God of Death send

you or my dead father?

Do you still hate me after

all this years, Papa?

STATE TEAM SELECTIONS TO BE

HELD IN MAHIPUR THIS YEAR

Damn! That's less than a month away.

No, goddammit, no!!!

Come here.

See... anger...

bowling does not mean...

If I do all this I'll forget

what I have to say.

Khadija!

One moment.

This is not about uprooting

the damn stumps on every ball...

because you will find someone

who's better than you.

This is all about mind games

that you play with your gut.

Mind games with your gut?

Just translate.

Why does a batsman hit you?

It's because he's read you.

He's gotten inside your head and read

what ball you're going to bowl to

him.

But what if he can never know until

the very last second...

because you yourself don't know?

How do you do this?

By going with your gut.

No one can teach you this.

Don't pre-determine what you're

going to bowl to him.

Get inside his head, watch him,

read every sign,

...absorb every movement...

and let your instinct tell you what

the

...just before you let the ball

slip from your fingers,

...when it'll be too late for him.

Basically, you have to make

the batsmen do what YOU want.

That is difficult.

-It is difficult but not impossible.

All I can teach you are little tricks

but

the real magic has to come from you.

Mohitji, I'm confused with

this mind and gut thing.

When the mind and gut work together

it doesn't matter which is which.

And your brother has to learn this.

Let's see, Kapil Dev... Kumble...

Harbhajan... Balaji?

And this?

-This is our favorite, Irfan.

Why only bowlers?

Brother thinks the batsmen

hog all the glory...

...while bowlers get very little of

the credit they actually deserve.

Now you have to force

me to hit the ball...

to the exact fielder or

in this case, buffalo.

Khadija, will you hold up

the numbers please.

Khadija will hold up a different

number each time...

...and you'll have to bowl

accordingly.

I won't be able to see the number.

Only after I hit the ball

I will check the number, okay?

How long have you had this?

We can't risk this.

Nothing...

What's this?

I used to call it the Mohit

Special...

..."The Trap."

It's not about making the batsman

hit where a fielder is...

...but about making him hit where

the fielder isn't at that time...

...and bringing in a fielder
