South Africa Champions and West Indies Champions will face each other in Match 3 of the World Championship of Legends 2026 at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Sunday, October 4.
Defending champions South Africa will be coming into this tournament with newfound enthusiasm to defend their title. They were led from the front by captain AB de Villiers, who was the player of the tournament in 2025 and will be looking to continue that same form.
West Indies Champions will be looking to make a major claim in the 2026 season. Possessing a star-studded unit with T20 stars of yesteryear such as Chris Gayle, Carlos Brathwaite, Andre Fletcher and Andre Russell, they will be spirited to stake a strong claim for the title.
