World Cup champions Robin Uthappa and S. Sreesanth have joined India Maharajas ahead of the next edition of the Legends League Cricket.
“It was great to see the Legends play while I was commentating in the last season of Legends League Cricket. I am inspired by the enthusiasm. Now I will be on the field playing with my old mates. It will be fun,” said Uthappa in an official statement.
“We thoroughly enjoyed the second season. The level of competition was beyond our own expectations. We expect this season to be more exciting, considering different teams from World, Asia and India. It is always a proud moment to play for India,” Sreesanth said.
Former Pakistan skippers Shahid Afridi and Misbah-ul-Haq will also participate in the upcoming edition of the Legends league. Both cricketers are set to represent Asia Lions.
“It will be fun to play with old mates and rivals. I am looking forward to a competitive season,” said Afridi after putting things on paper. Test cricket’s all-time leading wicket-taker Muralitharan has said he will play the tournament with much more enthusiasm and fun.
