The Pakistan Champions have unveiled a new logo in anticipation of the second season of the World Championship of Legends (WCL), which is set to commence later this month in the United Kingdom (UK).
The announcement was made via the franchise’s social media platforms, accompanied by the caption: “The wait is over, the identity is here. This is our roar. This is Pakistan Champions. Join us, and stand with us because we are #TheRoarOfTheNation.”
The WCL T20 League is returning for its second season in the July-August window, following a successful inaugural season last year. This tournament features cricketing legends from six nations: India, Australia, England, Pakistan, South Africa, and the West Indies.
In the first season, led by former Pakistan captain Younis Khan, the Pakistan Champions showcased impressive form, securing a win over England and suffering their only group-stage defeat against South Africa.
The Men in Green advanced to the semi-finals, where they defeated the West Indies by 20 runs, earning a spot in the final against India.
In a closely contested final, Pakistan set a target of 157 runs, but India successfully chased it down in 19.1 overs, claiming the title with a five-wicket victory.
The second season of the WCL will kick off on July 18, with the Pakistan Champions facing off against the England Champions at the iconic Edgbaston Stadium in Birmingham. A highly anticipated match between arch-rivals India and Pakistan is scheduled for July 20 at the same venue.
