Pakistan Champions, runners-up of the first World Championship of Legends (WCL), launched the official kit ahead of the second season of the event scheduled to be held in Birmingham later this month.
The star-studded franchise revealed its new emblem on the social media platform X, accompanied by the caption: "Proud to unveil the official jersey of the Pakistan Champions for the World Championship of Legends 2025."
Following a first successful season last year, the WCL T20 League is ready to come back for its second one in the July–August window.
From six countries — India, Australia, Pakistan, South Africa, England, and the West Indies—the tournament includes cricketing legends.
In the first season, Pakistan Champions ran an amazing campaign with overwhelming victories in the group stage.
Their trip started with a victory against Australia, after which they crushed the West Indies. They posted 243/4 in a memorable high-scoring battle against their arch rivals India before limiting the Men in Blue to 175/9.
Led by former Pakistan skipper Younis Khan, the squad kept up their remarkable form with a victory against England; their only groupstage loss came against South Africa.
Securing a 20-run win to book a place in the final against India, the Men in Green progressed to the semifinals where they overcame the West Indies once again.
Pakistan set a target of 157 in a tight final, but India pursued it down in 19.1 overs to take the championship with a five-wicket victory.
For the unversed, on July 18, Pakistan Champions will play England Champions at the famous Edgbaston Stadium in Birmingham to start the second season of the WCL.
Scheduled for July 20 at the same location is the much awaited conflict between archrivals India and Pakistan.
