The poses now. Smiles in unison, selfies, trophy-lifting stunts and much more. The crowd's ecstatic too. Sigh! That's all we have from this Legends tournament. It's been really competitive and also included some special knocks/moments from the likes of Sachin Tendulkar, Brian Lara, Virender Sehwag, Yuvraj Singh, Kevin Pietersen, Sanath Jayasuriya and Jonty Rhodes. Some of 'em still got it, mind . We had great fun covering this, hope you enjoyed it as much as we did. Until next time, goodbye and good night from Raju Peethala, Nikhil Jadhav and Mukesh Gowda. Cheers!! Sachin Tendulkar: Incredible. This is what we have been here for, to win this trophy. This wouldn't have been possible without the crowd support. In the last couple of overs we had to call the support staff to field and we have all been strapped really. This tournament is really important and I hope, as six teams, we have been able to spread the message across about road safety. I would like to applaud all the teams for coming in supporting us, this is one message all of us are trying to spread all around the world. Really pleased. Yusuf Pathan, Player of the Match: Feels very good to play. This is my first series after retirement and really happy with the win. Last three games we played really good cricket, he's (Yuvraj) been hitting them really well. Really enjoyed playing with my brother as well. Really enjoyed every moment of this tournament. Dilshan, Player of the Series: Congratulations to the India Legends on the win. We bowled well in the initial overs but we dropped important catches and Yusuf took the game away from us. Happy with the boys who have played well throughout the tournament. Sanath batted really well. The Indian team bowled and fielded well. It was a good tournament, we all enjoyed it. We had some great crowd and great facilities. 23:07 local: Opener Sanath Jayasuriya gave Sri Lanka a great start, but the lack of strike-rotation and a tight hammy meant he couldn't accelerate much after the powerplay overs. Jayasinghe and Weeraratne stitched a 64-run stand for the fifth wicket, but the wicket of the latter in the penultimate over all but ended hopes of a come-from-behind victory for Sri Lanka. The Pathan brothers were very impressive with the ball as the duo combined to pick the top four wickets and helped build the pressure in the middle overs. Irfan Pathan looks very happy on the sidelines, "a very special feeling as we (The Pathan brothers) got one more trophy in the bag" he says. Vinay Kumar now joins in and reveals "there's gonna be a huge party tonight." Badrinath believes that "it's important to have a good time and catch up on some good old memories." This must be a really special, special feeling for those that played the 2011 World Cup, for obvious reasons, of course. SLL: 167-7 after 20 overs 19.6 Munaf Patel to Maharoof, out Caught by Vinay Kumar!! India Legends are the champions of Road Safety World Series 2021. Maharoof slogs a full ball and hits it straight down the throat of long-on. The Indian dug-out race into the middle to celebrate the win and the skipper, Sachin collects a stump as a souvenir.
