May is Legends Month on Cricket Network

International cricket, as in all professional sports, brings joy to its fans through the deeds of its greatest players.

Whether it be with the bat, with the ball or in the field, every so often a player emerges whose feats on the cricket field will be remembered for as long as the game survives.

These are players who transcend national bias, cricketers who bring joy to the neutrals as much as the countries they represent.

To honour these greats of the game, Cricket Network will shine the spotlight on a modern legend every day during the month of May.

From the batting genius of Sachin Tendulkar and the bowling wizardry of Wasim Akram to the sheer athleticism of Andrew Symonds in the field, we'll take a closer look at some of the greatest performances from the best players the game has seen.

And using our extensive video archive, we'll bring back memories of these legends in their prime with vision of their greatest performances.

So keep an eye on cricket.com.au and follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram as we honour the best of the best during May.
