The tournament features six teams, which have been named after zodiac signs, consisting of retired players from different countries.The MCL roster includes some big names that have played cricket in the past two decades and brought glory to their respective nations. This provides us with the exciting prospect of seeing some great rivalries of the past getting renewed.Here are 5 classic duels we are likely to witness in the Masters Champions League:
#5 Virender Sehwag - Graeme Swann
A duel which will be on the cards during the inaugural edition of the Masters Champions League is the one between ace Indian opener Virender Sehwag and England's great off-spinner Graeme Swann. Sehwag is a member of the Gemini Arabians roster, whereas Swann will play for the Libra Legends.
Virender Sehwag is known to get after the spinners and he did the same to Swann as well during his international career. The dashing opener had a terrific average of 61.40 against the England offie in Tests. However, Graeme Swann too has pulled a few back on Viru as he dismissed him on as many as 5 occasions.
In ODIs, though, it was a Sehwag show all the way as he averaged 69 and got out only once to Swann. It will be fantastic to see the two of them lock horns once again in the shortest format of the game at the MCL.
