New Delhi, July 22: Former India captain and legendary batter Sourav Ganguly is set to join the likes of Virender Sehwag and Yuvraj Singh to participate in the upcoming second season of the Legends League Cricket (LLC).

The Prince of Kolkata or Dada has been an inspiration to many young cricketers who grew up watching him and made it big in the game of Cricket. Millions of fans vouch for his style and passion for Cricket. It would be very exciting for the fans to watch him back on the field.

Kallis, one of the greatest all-rounders of all time and certainly the best in recent times in all forms of the game, makes for a jaw-dropping experience. Kallis, the only man to have scored 10,000 runs and picked up over 250 wickets in both forms of the game, while confirming his participation said, "It feels great to be part of LLC and to play in season 2 of the league. I am looking forward to playing with other legends in the field."

Steyn - one of the most destructive fast-bowlers in the modern era - said, "The list of players playing is amazing. We will have some good fun."

Speaking about Kallis and Steyn coming on board for the tournament, Raheja said, "Legendary icons like Kallis and Steyn will bring more excitement and firepower to the field, entertaining the viewers with their performances. We welcome them to the Legends family and look forward to experiencing their cricketing magic on the field and getting entertained."
