Mumbai, Jan 11 (IANS): Actor Shahbaz Khan looks forward to working on a web series titled Game Of The Sexes, which he says is about fighting and winning against all odds.

It is themed around the game of cricket and is set in an imaginary post-Covid era when people have stopped going to stadiums. The game will show how the cricket board decides to bring back the excitement and interest in the sport. An idea of conducting a mixed-gender cricket match gets approved, but the woman who suggests it, gets caught in a scandal and is expelled from the board.

"It's a cricket-based series and I am excited to be a part of a very different show. It is about fighting and winning against all odds. There are very interesting twists and turns along with celebrating cricket as it is a game that evokes national interest," he said.

"Also, the show is set in post Covid times so, it will be interesting shooting for it," added the actor, known for shows such as "Chandrakanta", "The Sword Of Tipu Sultan" and "The Great Maratha".

The shoot of the EORtv show will begin later this month in Uttar Pradesh.
