WCL 2024 | Rayudu and Yusuf special lead India to win World Championship of Legends title defeating Pakistan

In reply, the Men in Blue got off to a flying start as Ambati Rayudu and Robin Uthappa raced to 24/0 in two overs. However, Pakistan's speedster Aamer Yamin disrupted the Indian top order dismissing Uthappa and Suresh Raina in the third over. Despite this setback, Gurkeerat Singh and Rayudu stabilized the innings, taking the score to 55/2 by the end of the powerplay. Rayudu was in fine form, scoring 43 off 25 balls, with the scoreboard reading 89/2 at the halfway mark. He then reached a 29-ball fifty, guiding India towards victory. Gurkeerat also shifted gears and kept the runs flowing until his departure in the 13th over, having scored 34 off 33 balls. The situation became tense as Yuvraj Singh and Yusuf Pathan struggled in the 13th and 14th overs leaving the scorecard at 122/4 after 15 overs. Pathan then accelerated scoring 13 runs in the 16th over. With four overs remaining, India needed 22 runs. Despite Sohail Tanvir's tight 19th over, which conceded only six runs, India lost Pathan's crucial wicket. Needing just two runs off the final over, the game shifted towards India. Ultimately, Yuvraj Singh secured the victory by scoring the winning runs on the first ball of the last over, as India Champions clinched the World Championship of Legends title by five wickets.
