The Legends Cricket Trophy is around the corner, and as the first match of the new 90-ball tournament nears, we are all set to see the clash of the titans with two of India’s cricketing greats Harbhajan Singh and Yuvraj Singh set to lock horns in the tournament opener, starting March 8 at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium in Kandy, Sri Lanka.
Former India all-rounder Yuvraj Singh, the captain and icon player of the New York Superstar Strikers, will lead the side comprising the likes of Dan Christian, Isuru Udana, Jerome Taylor, Ricardo Powell, Chamara Kapugedara, Rahul Sharma, and Lahiru Thirimanne, to name a few.
On the other hand, the Dubai Giants, led by captain and icon player Harbhajan Singh, comprise the likes of Shaun Marsh, Richard Levi, Thisara Perera, Fidel Edwards, and Ben Laughlin, amongst others. Both sides look balanced and will be ready to put up a stellar show on the opening day of the exciting tournament.
The first season of the Legend Cricket Trophy, played in the 20-over format, was held in Ghaziabad, India, from March 22 to 30 last year. Indore Knights and Guwahati Avengers were declared joint winners of the inaugural season after the final was washed out.
