What if smart choices could turn a street kid into a rising star?
In the bustling streets of Mumbai, Aarav dreams of becoming a cricket champion. But dreams alone don't win matches. When life throws him challenges - poverty, pressure, and powerful opponents - Aarav discovers something even more powerful than talent: strategy, team spirit and a sharp mind.
This is not just a sports fiction story. It's a coming-of-age journey packed with money skills, smart decisions, and personal growth. Aarav learns how to earn money, manage risks, trust the right people - and stand tall when it matters most.
If you enjoy inspirational stories like Wonder by R. J. Palacio, Stories for Boys Who Dare to Be Different by Ben Brooks, or the novels of Mike Lupica, this book belongs on your shelf.

A relatable, big-hearted hero with courage and curiosity A fast-paced mix of sports, emotion, and real-life decision-making Lessons in financial thinking, responsibility, and resilience Set in India -full of colour, culture, and chaos Perfect for boys and girls aged 10-16 and inspiring for adults, too
Smart decisions can change everything. Aarav's journey proves that even the biggest dreams can start in the smallest alleys -if you know how to play the game.
