India Legends scores 181/4 in their 20 overs which is below par score on this ground. India were watchful in the first few overs, but Sehwag departed quite early in the innings. Badrinath followed him soon, but Sachin had a decent partnership with Yuvraj as they somewhat steadied the ship. The real fireworks started when Yusuf entered the arena as Pathan senior had a breathtaking partnership with Yuvraj Singh. Both of them notched up their fifties and helped India stretch the total to the 180-run mark. Yusuf Pathan scored 62* of 36 balls and Yuvraj Singh scored 60 of 41 balls. For Sri Lanka Legends Maharoof picks 1 wickets for just 16 runs in his 4 overs.

Sri Lanka Legends unable to chase the target scored 167/8 in their 20 overs and lost the final by 14 runs. 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. Sanath Jayasuriya scored 43 of 35 balls and Chinthaka Jayasinghe scored 40 of 30 balls. For India Legends Irfan and Yusuf Pathan pick 2 wickets each in their 4 overs.

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.
