Broadcaster Mandira Bedi will host event from July 3-13, featuring top former international players NEW DELHI: The new World Championship of Legends cricket tournament taking place in the UK from July 3 to 13 will bring back the classic bowl-out format reminiscent of early 20-over games. The tournament takes place at the grounds of Edgbaston and Northamptonshire County Cricket Club in the UK. The WCL, co-owned by Bollywood icon Ajay Devgn, will feature some of the game’s top former international players. The decision to adopt the bowl-out method for resolving tied matches harks back to the early days of T20 cricket. This format, where bowlers try to hit the stumps unguarded by a batter, is aimed at making games more exciting for fans. Harshit Tomar, co-owner of the WCL, said recently that the 2007 game between India and Pakistan, where the format was used, remained one of his “favorite memories, hence we want to revive it and keep it very original.” Popular television presenter and actress Mandira Bedi will host the event.
