Hi. If you follow Legends League Cricket, how much do you think it does to popularise cricket among young people? I think it's cool to see veterans in action, but does that put off new fans who want to see fresh blood and dynamism? Or is it the other way around, that the experience and charisma of these players only adds to the interest?

I think that Legends League Cricket (LLC) is doing a great job of popularising cricket among young people, not only through the games but also through the atmosphere created by the veterans. Many fans, including myself, are interested in seeing old heroes on the field whose names we know well. These players bring not only skill to the match but also charisma, which can be a source of inspiration for younger viewers. Perhaps, someone lacks fresh blood, but even the veterans show that real cricket is not only about physical strength, but also the ability to read the game, to feel its dynamics. This can be useful for newcomers who are just starting to watch cricket. As for the influence on young people, the veterans can inspire young players not only with their achievements, but also with their personal stories and approach to business. I think in this way, LLC gives the viewers an opportunity to see cricket from different sides. It is especially good that fans are given the opportunity to read analysis and articles, such as this one on https://www.cricketweb.net/legends-league-cricket-cricket-icons-reborn/, which takes a detailed look at how LLC is helping to grow and popularise the sport among new generations.
