Some of cricket’s biggest names of the past two decades will reprise their careers to compete for the Legends League trophy this week. It will feature three teams, India Maharajas (led by Gautam Gambhir), Asia Lions (Shahid Afridi), and World Giants (Aaron Finch).

The Legends League features long-retired greats of the game including Muttiah Muralitharan, Shoaib Akhtar and Jacques Kallis, alongside more recent stars such as Eoin Morgan and a handful of internationally uncapped cricketers.

Teams will play in a double round-robin league format. The last two teams will play in an Eliminator, the winner of which will meet the table topper in the final. All matches are set to be played at West End Park International Cricket Stadium.

Below are the full squad lists for the tournament’s 2023 edition.
