Team News
India Legends
India Legends outclassed South Africa Legends in the first match of the tournament. Stuart Binny turned out to be the star of the tournament that night while Irfan Pathan and Rahul Sharma outclassed with the ball. West Indies Legends might be a tough team to defeat and the legends from India will look to tarnish them.
Players to watch out for:
1) Sachin Tendulkar:
Sachin Tendulkar played a few confident shots in the first match against South Africa Legends. The India Legends skipper will look to do well in the second match against West Indies Legends as well.
2) Irfan Pathan:
The veteran all-rounder still has the golden touch with the ball. He bowled a brilliant spell in the first match and will look to carry on the same to the second match as well.
3) Yusuf Pathan:
Yusuf Pathan played a great knock in the first match. He amassed 35 of 15 balls, comprising four maximums. He is in a dangerous form and might threaten the Caribbean legends.
