IPL-Style Legends League Featuring Cricket Icons Like Sachin Tendulkar, Yuvraj Singh in the Pipeline? BCCI Considering Proposal

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is reportedly mulling over a proposal to launch a new Legends League, akin to the IPL, featuring retired cricket icons like Sachin Tendulkar, Yuvraj Singh, and international stars like Brett Lee and Muttiah Muralitharan. According to reports, several former Indian cricketers who have been part of various global legends tournaments recently met with BCCI Secretary Jay Shah to pitch the idea of an IPL-like competition exclusively for retired players.

The proposed league would see teams representing various Indian cities, following the successful IPL model, with an auction process where teams would bid for retired players. The BCCI has not yet made any official announcements, and while it’s unlikely the league will launch in the near future, it could potentially become a reality by 2025.

Currently, several legends leagues such as the Road Safety World Series, World Championship of Legends, and Global Legends League are organized by private entities with no direct involvement from national cricket boards. However, an official BCCI-backed tournament could add significant credibility and attract global attention.

As of now, the BCCI manages two major T20 leagues—the IPL and the Women’s Premier League (WPL). Both tournaments feature international stars and have garnered immense popularity. The proposed Legends League would add another dimension to India’s already cricket-rich calendar, offering fans a nostalgic trip down memory lane with their favorite retired cricketers back in action.

The idea of a Legends League resonates well with the success of similar leagues worldwide, and if materialized, it could become one of the most anticipated events in the cricketing world. Fans across the globe, especially in India, could soon have the chance to watch cricketing legends like Sachin Tendulkar, Yuvraj Singh, and others showcase their skills on the field once again, making it a potential blockbuster in the making.
