The grand finale of the World Championship of Legends (WCL) 2025 will witness a thrilling contest between Pakistan Champions and South Africa Champions. The match is scheduled to be held on Saturday, August 2, at the iconic Edgbaston Stadium in Birmingham. Both teams have shown exceptional form throughout the tournament, making this clash a highly anticipated showdown for cricket fans around the world.
Pakistan Champions have dominated the season, remaining unbeaten in the league stage. Out of their five group matches, they won four comfortably while one match was washed out due to rain. South Africa Champions, captained by AB de Villiers, also enjoyed a strong campaign, winning four out of five matches. Their only defeat came at the hands of Pakistan, adding more intensity to this final as they seek redemption.
The final will begin at 9:00 PM IST, with the toss scheduled for 8:30 PM IST. Viewers in India can watch the match live on the Star Sports Network. For digital viewers, live streaming will be available on the Fancode app and website.
The road to the final was different for both teams. Pakistan earned a direct ticket to the final after India refused to play their semi-final match against them. Meanwhile, South Africa had to fight till the very end in their semi-final against Australia Champions, where they clinched a narrow one-run victory. AB de Villiers’ sharp fielding and the team’s all-round performance ensured their spot in the summit clash.
With experienced names like Shoaib Malik, Saeed Ajmal, and Kamran Akmal on one side, and AB de Villiers, Hashim Amla, and Imran Tahir on the other, the final promises to be an exciting mix of nostalgia and competition. Fans can expect fireworks as these two legendary sides battle for WCL glory under the Birmingham lights.
