This league is designed to provide a stage for players, who might not be at international spotlight, to showcase their skills alongside cricketing greats," said Sharma.

"We aim to inspire future generations and remind fans of the timeless spirit of the game. Legend 90 is more than a tournament—it’s a celebration of cricket’s legacy, uniting nostalgia with fierce competition and entertainment," he added.

The league founder also spoke about the unique 90-ball format as the centerpiece of the league. "The 90-ball format is the heart of Legend 90 League, offering a thrilling and fast-paced experience that redefines the way cricket is played and enjoyed. This innovative format not only tests the strategic skills of players but also keeps fans on the edge of their seats," he said.
