Legends League Cricket season 2 will begin today with Match No 1 taking place between India Capitals and Gujarat Giants. While India capitals will be led by Gautam Gambhir, Gujarat Giants will be captained by another former Indian opener Virender Sehwag. Not to forget, Sehwag and Gambhir have opened for India across formats for years. They have earlier played against each other in IPL. They started off together in IPL when they opened for Delhi Daredevils before Gautam parted was and joined the Kolkata Knight Riders camp and led them to 2 title wins.
Since then, Sehwag and Gambhir have fought against each other in stiff battles on the pitch. The LLC contest brings back the rivalry between the two Delhi-born players.
Expect some fireworks as Gambhir is someone who takes big pride in his game and would be looking to play with fire. Sehwag is a cool customer but he was known for his attacking game and would be matching fire with fire. Both teams possess some firepower, especially Sehwags's team where one can see the name of Chris Gayle. If he plays tonight expect a lot of fireworks at Eden Gardens.
