If planets had their own cricket teams, the solar system would be one chaotic tournament. Some would shine as match-winners, while others would just be there for the snacks.
Always rushing, Mercury plays T20 like it’s a 5-over match. Hits a boundary, runs a quick single, and then gets run out because patience is a concept it never understood.
Venus – The Overconfident All-Rounder
Struts in like a superstar but forgets to perform. Plays stylish cover drives, but as soon as the pressure builds, throws the wicket away. Blames the pitch, the bat, and the alignment of the planets.
Earth – The Dependable Captain
Balanced, experienced, and the only one holding the team together. Keeps the scoreboard ticking while also dealing with sledging from Mars and unnecessary drama from the outer planets.
Mars – The Aggressive Fast Bowler
Runs in like a gladiator, fueled by pure rage. Bowls bouncers, stares at batters like they owe money, and appeals even when the ball is nowhere near the stumps.
Jupiter – The Power Hitter
A walking six-machine. Hits the ball so far it orbits the Sun before landing. The only issue? Gets tired after two overs and then just stands in the slips, pretending to field.
Saturn – The Tactical Spinner
Brings in the tricks, spins the ball like it’s running on some advanced physics formula. Makes batters look foolish but also takes an eternity to finish an over because of all the overthinking.
Uranus – The Fielder Who Dropped the World Cup
No one knows what’s going on. Stands in the wrong position, runs in the opposite direction, and when a catch finally comes, drops it with style. Best at waving to the crowd.
Neptune – The Cool Finisher
Bats at the end, doesn’t say much, and then smashes last-over sixes like it’s a Bollywood climax. No stress, no fuss, just pure class.
Pluto – The 12th Man Who Never Gets Picked
Carries the drinks, warms the bench, and hopes for a chance. No one counts it as part of the team, but deep down, it still believes.
One thing’s for sure—this tournament would be pure entertainment, with Jupiter launching sixes and Uranus ensuring every catch is a meme-worthy moment.
