Former India cricketer Yuvraj Singh has confirmed his participation as the captain of India Champions in the second season of the World Championship of Legends.
The World Championship of Legends is scheduled to take place in July in the United Kingdom.
The star all-rounder guided India to victory in the tournament’s inaugural edition last year, beating arch-rivals Pakistan in the final at the Edgbaston in Birmingham.
India vs Pakistan will clash in the league stage this year at the same venue on July 20.
Yuvraj will be accompanied by accomplished opening batsman Shikhar Dhawan. The cricketer will be making his tournament debut following his retirement from international cricket last year.
On leading India again in the second edition of the WCL T20 tournament, Yuvraj Singh said, “I’m looking forward to representing our nation at the World Championship of Legends again. The memories of our victory in the first edition of the tournament, alongside my teammates, will always remain close to my heart.”
Harshit Tomar, Founder of the World Championship of Legends, “I have always seen this tournament as a way forward for cricket to have its future through its senior cricketers. Our cricketing heroes are our sentiments, and hosting them to the best of our ability and care has always been our vision.”
