Unfortunately, the competition will not include Indian Icon Sachin Tendulkar, who was a massive draw in the competition’s inaugural edition last year in Ranchi. Despite the fact that Tendulkar’s name appeared in the event advertising, however, the master blaster stated via his management company that he will not be participating this year.
According to Ravi Shastri, Commissioner of Howzat Legends League Cricket, “Truly living up to their names, World Giants will be the team to beat in the championship. It can’t get better than this. When you see top names from the World of Cricket coming together to take on the battle against Asia and India, it would be a treat for the Cricket fans.”
