World Championship Of Legends 2025: The stage is set for the second edition of the World Championship of Legends (WCL) 2025, with the tournament kicking off on July 18 at Edgbaston, Birmingham. The opening clash promises fireworks as the hosts England Champions take on Pakistan Champions in a highly anticipated clash of giants.
This year's WCL will witness 18 thrilling encounters played across four iconic venues in England - Edgbaston (Birmingham), County Ground (Northampton), Grace Road (Leicester), and Headingley (Leeds). The tournament will culminate with the grand finale on August 2.

Defending champions India Champions, led once again by the charismatic Yuvraj Singh, are ready to chase another title. The squad features a formidable lineup of former international stars including Shikhar Dhawan, Robin Uthappa, Ambati Rayudu, Yusuf Pathan, and Gurkeerat Mann in the batting unit.
The all-round duties will be handled by Irfan Pathan and Stuart Binny, while a potent bowling attack comprising Harbhajan Singh, Vinay Kumar, Varun Aaron, Siddharth Kaul, Abhimanyu Mithun, Piyush Chawla, and Pawan Negi looks to make a mark.
India Champions will begin their campaign on July 20 in a high-voltage encounter against arch-rivals Pakistan Champions, reigniting one of the most iconic rivalries in cricket history. The same two teams contested the 2024 WCL final, where India emerged victorious by five wickets.
