Pakistan lost the World Championship of Legends (WCL) final against the Yuvraj Singh-led Indian side. Pakistan Legends had defeated India Legends in the league stage of the tournament, prompting captain Younis Khan to say that it was a revenge of the defeat that Babar Azam’s Pakistan team had faced against India in the T20 World Cup 2024. However, as the two teams met again in the final at Birmingham, India Legends secured a comfortable victory over their arch-rivals.
“Congratulations to India, they played like true legends. They excelled in all three departments. Our game plan was to build a defendable total, but crucial partnerships are essential in finals. India formed the partnerships needed to chase down our score, something we failed to do, unlike in the semi-finals where we had strong partnerships,” Younis said after the match.
“The level of cricket was outstanding. My expectations before the tournament were different, but I’m proud of our team’s effort,” he added.
