India defeated Pakistan by five wickets to win the inaugural edition of the World Championship of Legends (WCL). The Indian skipper Yuvraj Singh was ecstatic following the win as he lauded the players for their commendable effort throughout the tournament and especially the final.
Yuvraj mentioned it feels good holding the trophy at 42 and also thanked the crowd for turning up in numbers in all the matches. The India Champions captain also thanked all the coaches and support staff for oiling the "old rusted machinery".
“Feels good to be holding the winning trophy at this age too. Absolutely thrilled with the boys’ (or should I say men’s) performance throughout the tournament! It’s always great to be back on the park with legends from around the world. A massive thank you to the crowds for coming out in large numbers to support us. And not to forget our coaches and support staff, who did an incredible job oiling our rusted machinery and helping us perform out there,” Yuvraj tweeted after the game.
