When the Indian Thunder League takes the field, millions watch the scoreboard. But behind the floodlights, a quieter game is being played - one of loyalty, courage, and the secrets that shape a team. Seven junior cricketers from across India - the Sixer Squad - meet at a national development camp and uncover a plot to destroy the ITL - an Indian T20 league. Each book in this five book series follows the squad as they protect a different team from the schemes of a brilliant, embittered former prodigy. The Guardians are the seven young young cricketers who carry more than bat and ball. They carry the hopes of families, the weight of rivalries, and the whispered legacy of those who played before them. Each match tests their skill. Every over tests their character. And somewhere between the boundary rope and the pavilion, they'll discover that the truest opponents are rarely the ones in the other dressing rooms.Packed with the heart-stopping drama of elite cricket, the warmth of friendships forged through shared battles, and mysteries that unfold ball by ball, the Guardians of the Game series is cricket fiction as you've never read it before - fast, fierce, and unforgettable.
