Legends League Cricket will get underway on September 16 with a special match between India Maharajas and World Giants. Right after that, the first match will take place on September 17 with 4 new teams added this year. 

In a pool of talented veterans, we have handpicked five players whom one must watch out for in the upcoming season. Here are five players one must watch out for in the tournament:

1) Virender Sehwag

Virender Sehwag was India’s most aggressive and trusted opener of his era. The batter can take on any bowler on his day and can give nightmares to fast bowlers in specific. The veteran amassed as many as 2728 runs in the Indian T20 League with two centuries to his name. He’ll definitely go down as one of the players to watch out for in the tournament. 

2) Jacques Kallis

Jacques Kallis had a fantastic stint with the Kolkata franchise in the Indian T20 League. He used to play some classic shots and fire up the team with his tactical skills. Post his stint with the team, he even spent some time as the coach of the franchise. 

The all-rounder went on to amass as many as 2427 runs in the Indian T20 League and also picked as many as 65 wickets in the tournament overall. He will be brutal in the Legends League Cricket.

3) Brett Lee

Brett Lee is one of the greatest, if not, the greatest bowler of all time. The pacer made his Test debut against India and went on to threaten the batters in all three formats. He was a valuable asset in the Indian T20 League and the Big Bash League as well. Having represented a lot of domestic clubs in the format, the player will be one of the stars to watch out for in the upcoming season of the Legends League Cricket. 

4) Muttiah Muralitharan

Muttiah Muralitharan, the Sri Lankan legendary spinner had a fantastic outing with the Chennai team. The player then went on to play for the Kochi franchise and Bangalore franchise. The spinner can still create havoc with his aggressive spin skills and composed nature. Albeit he remains calm in most situations, the legend does the opposite when he gets the ball in his hands. 

5) Irfan Pathan

Irfan Pathan is faring well despite not being an active player in the game. The swing hero is still able to bet on his strength and make the ball move as he wishes to. The veteran went on to add 1139 runs and 80 wickets to his name in the Indian T20 League. With a familiar format and familiar grounds, Irfan Pathan should make the headlines in most of the matches in the Legends League Cricket 2022.
