India vs Pakistan Legends Match Called Off Amid Indian Players’ Boycott

Birmingham— A highly anticipated Legends World Championship match between cricketing giants India and Pakistan was abruptly called off today due to an internal rift within the Indian team. The cancellation has left thousands of cricket fans disappointed, especially those eager to witness another chapter in the iconic rivalry—even in the legends’ arena.

According to insider sources, several former Indian cricketers refused to play the scheduled match over the participation of former Pakistani captain Shahid Afridi, who continues to be a fiery presence on and off the field, even after retirement.

The five Indian legends who allegedly opted out of the match include:

• Yusuf Pathan
• Irfan Pathan
• Harbhajan Singh
• Suresh Raina
• Yuvraj Singh

Sources close to the event reveal that the players expressed strong reservations, stating they would not take the field if Afridi represented Pakistan in the match. Their decision forced the event organisers to cancel the game altogether, as a full Indian squad could not be fielded.
