The Road Safety World Series will take a cue from the international calendar, throwing up its own iteration of the India vs England rivalry on Tuesday. India Legends take on the England Legends in a mouth-watering clash, with both teams yet to lose a game this season.
India Legends have been the standout performers in the Road Safety World Series. Sachin Tendulkar’s men have won three games on the trot, and sit at the top of the Road Safety World Series 2021 points table.
They resumed the tournament from where they left off last week, putting together a clinical performance against Bangladesh Legends. They bowled out Bangladesh Legends for just 109, with all the bowlers chipping in with wickets.
Virender Sehwag and Sachin Tendulkar took over from there on, wrapping up the chase in just 61 balls. India Legends are one of the most balanced outfits in the Road Safety World Series, and it will be difficult to stop the juggernaut anytime soon.
They come up against a worthy rival in England Legends in Raipur. The team was drafted this year, but have already grabbed headlines in the competition.
England Legends hit the ground running in their season opener, beating the Bangladesh Legends by seven wickets. Chris Tremlett was the pick of the bowlers, while others were economical to restrict Mohammad Rafique’s men to just 113/5.
A Kevin Pietersen blitzkrieg (42 of 17 balls) finished off the chase as soon as it began, and England Legends coasted home with the scoreboard reading 117/3 after 14 overs.
Stars like Yuvraj Singh, Sachin Tendulkar, Kevin Pietersen and Monty Panesar will play the India Legends vs England Legends clash, making the Road Safety World Series 2021 encounter an unmissable one.
