      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;In a heartwarming gesture, Pakistan legend and captain of the Asia Lions Shahid Afridi has gifted the Legends League trophy to the people of Afghanistan.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Asia Giants thrashed World Giants in the final by seven wickets in the final on Monday.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Following the game, a clip from the dressing room of the champions went viral, where Shahid Afridi can be seen standing with teammates including former Afghanistan captain Asghar Afghan, pacer Shoaib Akhtar, all-rounder Mohammad Hafeez, and batter Misbah ul Haq.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;    &lt;figure class='media  w-full  w-full  media--stretch  media--embed  media--uneven'&gt;
        &lt;div class='media__item  media__item--twitter  '&gt;&lt;span&gt;
    &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"&gt;
        &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/MAsgharAfghan/status/1637897337048555520"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
    &lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
        
    &lt;/figure&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Alhamdulillah, we won the trophy thanks to the effort from all the boys,” he said. “This trophy, I am especially giving to Asghar, which means I am giving it to the people of Afghanistan from all of us.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Earlier, former Sri Lankan batters Upul Tharanga and Tillakaratne Dilshan put up a brilliant 115-run opening stand as Asia Lions chased down a 148-run target with 23 balls to spare.&lt;/p&gt;
