The third game of The Friendship Cup UAE 2022 will see some Bollywood stars go up against former Indian cricketers. This match promises to be a cracker with a lot of entertainment expected.
Both teams are coming off a loss each. While the India Legends lost their game to the World Legends XI, the Bollywood Kings had gone down to Pakistan Legends. Therefore, a win for either could kickstart their tournament and bolster their chances going ahead.
For the Bollywood Kings, Mudasir Bhat was the silver lining in their last game having scored an impressive half-century. However, they would want a lot more contribution from their top-order. India Legends had Imtiaz Ahmed as their star performer picking up 2-20 in their first game.

Pitch Report:
Sharjah has a surface that suits perfectly for stroke-making. It is hard and the ball comes onto the bat well. The batters can find value for their shots given the short boundary sizes. However, there is often some help for the seamers with the new ball moving a bit upfront. The captain winning the toss is likely to field first.
Probable Playing XIs for India Legends vs Bollywood Kings
India Legends:
Mohammad Asaduddin, Nayan Mongia, Saba Karim, Ajay Sharma, Mohammad Azharuddin (c), Rajesh Chauhan, Jai Prakash Yadav, Imtiyaz Ahmed, Vikram Singh, Amit Bhandari, Narendra Hirwani.

Probable Top Performers
Probable best batter of the match
Mohammad Azharuddin
Former Indian captain, Mohammad Azharuddin, failed to impress in his last game against the World Legends XI. However, given the standards he had set for himself in his hay days, Azharuddin can be expected to not take too long to find back his form. Given the opposition has a weaker bowling unit, the elegant batter should fancy his chances at scoring significant runs for his team. The outfield in Sharjah is quick and thus should help the star cricketer with his exquisite timing.
Probable best bowler of the match
Amit Bhandari
Former Indian cricketer, Amit Bhandari, has got some needed game time behind him having played in the recently concluded Legends League Cricket 2022 in Oman. Thus, it should help Bhandari in his outing for the India Legends. The right-arm medium bowler looked in good touch when he last played and should be able to extract some help with the white ball. His team would be hoping for a good show from the bowler with him likely to pick up a few wickets in this game.
