As said by Chairman Peshawar Zalmi, Mr. Javed Afridi
“Sports can unite all nations of the world. Based on this thought, we have invited all of these talented superstars to give them recognition for their achievement. And I am happy to announce that they will be joining us in Pakistan. This will help to establish a positive image of Pakistan in the sporting world.”
PTV Sports head Dr. Nouman Nawaz commented
“‘GOP’s initiative to host sports lifetime achievement awards is now a reality. All credit to Javed Afridi and Peshawar Zalmi for partnering PTV in their endeavor to promote neglected sports. Peshawar Zalmi to me isn’t a franchise of the PSL but much more then that & PTV Sports commercialism aside is also endeavoring to reinvigorate the sports culture in the country. With foreign players coming in to join Pakistani superstars replicates the soft image of Pakistan. I believe it’s going to be an annual feature and both the parties PZ and PTVC intend to promote healthy peace loving sports crazy Pakistan leaving for future generations to follow the legacy”
