Everyone loves to see cricketing legends in action, especially those who have been retired for a while and out of the limelight. And that’s what the UAE Friendship Cup 2022 is all about, where the top legends of world cricket will come together to face off against the most popular Bollywood stars in a 3-day series scheduled to take place in UAE’s Sharjah International Stadium.
This comes after similar tournaments like Road Safety World Series and the Legends League Cricket saw the best retired players in action together. Those tournaments did really well but this one will have a much better commercial value as it involves stars from the Indian entertainment industry as well. ARBA Sports Services LLC and The Safety Ambassadors Council of Dubai Police are organising the event.
UAE Friendship Cup 2022 Dates
Obviously since these Bollywood stars and retired players aren’t in the prime of fitness, these tournaments usually don’t come with a long schedule and here too, the series is scheduled within three days only, with the UAE Friendship Cup dates set between only 5-7 March 2022. All games during this time will be played at the same venue in Sharjah.
