What to Expect On the Field

This tournament is a remarkable opportunity to witness some classic skills. While these players may have long since disappeared from the international stage, their love for the game remains.

I think the experience and cricketing intelligence of these legends will play a major role in finding victories in this event, and that should be very enjoyable to watch.
