Description
He came to India for a holiday. He found a game that changed him. Twelve-year-old Ethan Miller expects two long, uncomfortable months in a country that feels nothing like home. The noise, the heat, the crowds-everything about India overwhelms him. Back in the United States, Ethan knows exactly who he is: a baseball player with a clear path forward. But in a dusty neighbourhood ground under the blazing Delhi sun, he hears a sound that stops him in his tracks-the clean crack of a bat connecting with a ball. Cricket. At first, it's confusing. The rules feel endless. The rhythm is unfamiliar. The boys who play seem to understand something he doesn't. Yet with every afternoon practice, every missed ball, every small victory, Ethan begins to see that cricket is more than a sport-it's a language, a culture, a way of measuring patience and presence in India. As friendships deepen and a local match approaches, Ethan must decide whether he's willing to stand in unfamiliar territory long enough to truly belong. When the game finally tests him, it's not just his skill at stake-but his understanding of who he is becoming. Set against the vibrant backdrop of India, Cricket in New Delhi is a thoughtful coming-of-age story about identity, courage, and the discovery that sometimes the most important lessons come from learning to play a new sport. Perfect for readers who love sports fiction with heart, cross-cultural journeys, and stories about growth that feel real.
