Road Safety World Series is an annual Twenty20 cricket tournament played between the Legends of India, England, Australia, South Africa, West Indies, Sri Lanka, New Zealand and Bangladesh.

The Series, organized by Mumbai-based “Majestic Legends Sports Private Limited”, completed an immensely successful First Season in 2020-2021 featuring Bharat Ratna Sachin Tendulkar and West Indies superstar Brian Lara among a host of other celebrated Cricketers like England Batting Star Kevin Pietersen, India’s Opening Sensation Virender Sehwag, Sri Lankan limited-overs Hero Tillakaratne Dilshan and South Africa’s Fielding icon Jonty Rhodes. Sachin Tendulkar is the Brand Ambassador while Sunil Gavaskar, a Padma Bhushan Awardee, former India captain and the World’s First Batsman to breach the 10,000-run mark in Tests, is the Commissioner of the Series.

The objective of the Road Safety World Series is to drive a social change in the Country and reduce the number of road accidents and casualties in India.

The Series was launched in October 2020 in Mumbai during a glittering function where Tendulkar and Gavaskar underlined the importance of Road Safety along with Brian Lara, Jonty Rhodes, Brett Lee and Tillakaratne Dilshan.

Former World 100m sprint champion and Road Safety Champion Yohan Blake wowed the audience with his views on Road Safety during the Jersey launch in Mumbai in December 2020.

The Road Safety initiative is supported by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MORTH), Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) and Maharashtra Motor Vehicles Department (MMVD). Majestic Legends Sports Pvt Ltd put the Series together with “Viacom 18” as the Broadcast Partner and Sunil Gavaskar’s Sports Management Company “Professional Management Group” (PMG) as the event Partner. Education Technology Giants “Unacademy” was the Title Sponsor of the First Season held in 2020-21 and the series was titled as “Unacademy Road Safety World Series”.

The First Season was held under COVID-19’s shadow in two instalments. The first four matches were held in March 2020 at the Wankhede Stadium and DY Patil Stadium, Navi Mumbai before the pandemic forced a suspension. The remaining matches were completed in March 2021 in Raipur with the addition of two new teams, England and Bangladesh. Australia bowed out due to the pandemic, so it eventually became a Six-Team affair.

The Chhattisgarh Government played a key role in ushering the tournament at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh Stadium in Raipur. The attendance was reduced to 50 per cent and all games were conducted with strict COVID protocols in place for all players, officials and even the spectators at the stadium.

The Sachin Tendulkar-led India Legends clinched the Title with a Thrilling Victory over Sri Lankan Legends in the finals. The Sri Lankan Legends Captain Tillakaratne Dilshan emerged as star of the tournament with an all-round display.
