WOG vs ASL: World Giants will lock horns against Asia Lions in the 3rd match of Legends League Cricket, 2022 on Wednesday, January 26, 2022, at Al Amerat Cricket Ground.
World Giants witnessed a huge loss in their opening fixture in the tournament but they bounced back strongly and registered a victory against India Maharajas in their second fixture by 3 wickets.
