Parents mana kar rahe surgery se, lekin cricket ka sapna khatam ho jayega kya? Koi wapas khela hai ACL ke baad?

Yaar, I'm really scared right now. I had my ACL tear 2 weeks back during a district level match. I was going for a quick single and suddenly my knee just gave way. The pain was insane but I thought it's just a minor twist. But MRI showed complete tear.

Surgeon said surgery is the only option if I want to play again. But my parents are refusing. They're saying "beta yeh surgery bada risk hai, pehalwan ke paas chalo, woh massage se theek kar dega." I'm 22, I've been playing since school, cricket is all I know. My dad even called some local desi vaidya who gave me some herbal oil to massage. I tried it for 3 days but my knee is still swollen and unstable.

I feel like my career is over before it even started. I can't even walk properly without limping. Friends say I should listen to doctor but parents are too scared. And honestly, I'm also scared ki surgery ke baad kya main kabhi same speed se daud paunga? What about cutting and quick turns?

Has anyone here actually returned to competitive sports after ACL surgery? Or should I just give up on cricket and accept that my body is finished? I need some real advice because I'm losing hope.
