Peter England Launches ‘League of Legends' with Cricket Icons
Timed with the IPL season, the campaign goes beyond the boundaries of sport to introduce 'The Gentlemen's League Collection', a cricket-inspired fashion line that fuses timeless style with legendary spirit.
The campaign features four cinematic films:
Two dramatized stories showcase Kapil Dev and Sir Vivian Richards mentoring young players, donning collection pieces that embody their legendary poise and strength.
Two heartfelt reaction films capture their emotional responses to tribute tees—the '83' and '79' shirts , celebrating their respective World Cup triumphs.
Harsha Bhogle's narration adds a rich, nostalgic layer to the storytelling.
Kapil Dev said, 'The '83 design brings back a flood of memories. Cricket teaches grace—this collection captures that perfectly.'
Sir Vivian Richards added, 'Cricket and confidence go hand in hand. That '79 tee? That's not a shirt—it's a legacy.'
Harsha Bhogle, now in his second season with the brand, shared, 'Cricket is storytelling. This campaign lets every fan feel that emotion.'
Anil S Kumar, CBO of Peter England, noted, 'Cricket is legacy. And this campaign is our tribute—to the legends and the style they inspire.'
The collection—featuring limited-edition polos and graphic tees—is now live across 240+ stores, IPL coverage, leading digital platforms, and on-ground brand activations.

Hosts India have announced their squad for the upcoming Women's ODI World Cup 2025, which is scheduled to be played from September 30 to November 2.

I have a lot of experience batting at No.4, I am just looking to contribute to the team," said Harmanpreet in the press conference. "We are really excited for the World Cup. We are having training camps. We are preparing ourselves mentally and physically," he added. A notable omission for India is Shafali Verma who also missed out on a spot in the recent ODI series against England. The opener had returned to the T20I side in the same series and was a part of the India 'A' side against Australia 'A'. However, the selectors have opted for stability as the team heads into this all-important tournament. "She is playing for India 'A' in Australia. She is a part of the system. We are keeping an eye out for her. The more she plays, the more experience she will gain for the future," the Indian captain said. "Our team did well in England. We have been working on this squad for a long time now. I think the team we have picked is the best, so we don't want to play around with the team ahead of the World Cup. We just want Shafali to keep playing and gain some experience," she added.
