Last year’s match ended in a 2-2 draw with Yuvraj Singh and KL Rahul scoring for Virat Kohli’s team. Unlike last year when Abhishek Bachchan led the All-Stars side before moving to the touchline from where he was giving inputs to his players, Ranbir will lead the Bollywood team this year.
Interestingly, All Heart FC vs All Star FC was first played in the year 2013 where the cricketers won the match by 4-3, however, Ranbir Kapoor was again the showstopper as he single-handedly gave his opposition a run for their money.
The money that is earned from this match will go to the charity run by Kohli and Bachchan.
It is good to see the cricketers and the Bollywood actors unite for a good cause. If they manage to do this on a regular basis, it will be good for the society and the respective charities.
