"Shaano Se Toh Haarte Kam Se Kam" – Fans Rejoice as England Champions Beat India Champions by 23 Runs

In an exciting match at Leeds, England Champions won against India Champions by 23 runs in the World Championship of Legends 2025. Ravi Bopara was the star of the show, scoring a brilliant unbeaten 110 runs off just 55 balls. His knock helped England for a big total of 223 for 3 in 20 overs.

After losing Phil Mustard early, Bopara and Ian Bell (54) put together a strong partnership. Towards the end, Moeen Ali gave the innings a big push with his quick 33 from only 13 balls. The Indian bowlers couldn’t stop the run flow, especially in the last few overs.

India Champions, led by Yuvraj Singh, decided to bowl first after winning the toss. The team came into the match with little rest, having played against Australia just a day before. They had already lost to South Africa and Australia, and their first match against Pakistan didn’t happen because of political tensions.

Chasing 224, India lost Robin Uthappa for zero runs. Shikhar Dhawan scored 17 runs, and Ambati Rayudu scored 28 runs with 3 sixes. Yuvraj Singh fought hard with 38 runs, and Stuart Binny hit a quick fire 35 runs in 13 balls. Yusuf Pathan kept hopes alive with a powerful 52 from 29 balls. But England bowlers kept striking. Shahzad picked up 4 wickets, and Bopara also got one. India ended with 200 for 8 in 20 overs, falling short by 23 runs. It was a tough night for India.

Q - If Pakistan reaches WCL Semi Final, will India Play ?

Shikhar Dhawan - That's the wrong question, If this happens, I won't be playing against Pakistan once again.
