That's all we have today for you guys! A great day of cricket and a finish to the tournament. But don't worry, Do join us for some thrilling cricket from all around the globe. It's me, Jatin Sachdeva, along with my fellow commentators Ajay Ahire and Anmol, signing off for the day!
Till then stay safe, Bye-bye.
Morne Morkel ( Legend of the tournament): "Happy with the performance and with the resulting team got. We had 15 fit players in the dugout and the fight was on for the playing eleven but I'm happy that I played my part well and will work on my fielding more and come out better next time."
Corey Anderson (Legend of the match): "It's been a great competition. Hopefully, we will come back next time and do well here. I was always trying to play long and keep on scoring. Not much pressure in this league so enjoyed the batting here. Great effort by the boys to win the inaugural season. Enjoyed my time here at Muscat."
Kevin Pietersen: "Amazing feeling. It's been a nice couple of weeks for us. Enjoying in Muscat really beautiful place to explore. Played some golf here so all went well for us. All of us want to enjoy and win the tournament here. Sharing dressing rooms with the legends was a great feeling. Winning the trophy has to be my favorite memory of this season. The guys are enjoying here so can't wait to get hands on the trophy."
Coming to the chase Asia lions started really well with Dilshan and Jayasuriya putting on a fifty run stand for the first wicket, where Jayasuriya scored 38 off just 23 and Dilshan made 25 off 16 and as the first wicket went down World Giants managed to take in regular interval, never allowing Asia to build another big partnership due to Asia started to lack behind and suffered a defeat by 25 runs in this final.

Some contributions too from Tharanga 25(16), Afghan 24(10), Rafique 22(18), and Yousuf 39(21) but still weren't enough to take their team home and lift the trophy.

Talking about World Gaint bowler Albie Morkel was the pick of the bowler taking 3/35 off his spell of four and a couple of wickets for Monty Panesar, who bowled a tight line and a wicket each for Sidebottom and Morne Morkel helping in getting their team home and lifting that trophy and not to forget good captaincy from Sammy again, adding one more trophy to his name.
So right there, World Gaint has won the match by 25 runs and tournament too.

Here's a short brief of what all had happened today in this final match of legends league cricket.
Asia Lions won the toss and asked World Gaint to bat first and to open for them came KP and Mustard, KP started really well and put on a 51 run stand for the first wicket and played well for his 48 off just 22 balls and after that 2 wickets well in quick but from there onwards, Anderson and Haddin took the responsibility and Haddin departed after playing a good knock of 37 off just 16 balls and Anderson, on the other hand, stood firm till the last ball and scored 94 runs off just 43 balls and after their partnership and some blistering knock from the skipper of 38 from 17 balls and an 18 for Albie Morkel and due to all of this great batting from World Gaint legends their team manages to put on a massive target of 257 for the Asia Lions.
