The opening game of the Legends League Cricket 2022 will see India Capitals take on Gujarat Giants. Eden Gardens in Kolkata will host the contest. The league promises to be an exciting one as former cricketers compete against each other once again.

India Capitals will be led by Gautam Gambhir. Having led Kolkata Knight Riders to the IPL title before, Gambhir has plenty of experience in leading a side in the shortest format. The likes of Asghar Afghan, Jacques Kallis and Ravi Bopara form a formidable batting lineup to go with Mitchell Johnson, Liam Plunkett and Mashrafe Mortaza, who will lead the bowling attack.

Gujarat Giants also have an exciting squad. Former Indian swashbuckling opener Virender Sehwag has been handed the responsibility of leading the side. ‘Universe Boss’ Chris Gayle is also a part of the side. Other notable inclusions are Kevin O'Brien, Daniel Vettori and Richard Levi, who will be eager to step up and help their side start their campaign on a winning note.
