Former India cricketers Harbhajan Singh, Shikhar Dhawan, Suresh Raina and Robin Uthappa will take part in the Super60 USA Legends Tournament, which runs from 5 to 16 August.
Harbhajan and Raina were part of India’s 2011 ODI World Cup-winning team. Uthappa played in the victorious 2007 T20 World Cup squad. Dhawan was a key player in India’s Champions Trophy win in 2013. All four expressed their excitement at joining the new competition.
Harbhajan said, “I’m thrilled to be part of the Super60 USA Legends Tournament. It’s a unique and distinguished format that promises to bring a fresh perspective to the game. With international legends involved, this is a big step toward popularising cricket in this part of the world.”
Raina echoed the sentiment. “I’m excited to be part of the tournament, which brings together world-class talent. It will help grow the cricketing community in the US, and I’m proud to play a role in that journey.”
Dhawan added, “Joining the Super60 USA Legends Tournament is a fantastic opportunity to engage with fans in a growing cricket community. This event can bring cricket into the mainstream in the US, paving the way for future generations.”
Uthappa called the tournament an excellent platform. “Its unique format brings a fresh appeal to the game and has great potential to attract new fans. It’s exciting to be part of something that contributes meaningfully to cricket’s development in the US.”
The tournament will use the fast-paced T10 format, which offers a thrilling and entertaining twist to traditional cricket. It aims to engage spectators with more excitement and shorter matches.
