KARACHI: Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah said on Sunday he is delighted that the second straight final of Pakistan Super League is going to be played in Karachi today.
Speaking to the media during his visit to the National Stadium where he arrived to review the arrangements for today’s fixture, he said, “Purana [old] Karachi has returned. I hope that Purana Pakistan will also come back.”
He said this in an apparent reference to the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) refrain about a Naya Pakistan.
The chief minister said people from all over the country are coming to see the final match, adding the government has ensured that spectators won’t have to face hardships.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) wants to bring international cricket back to the country, he said and added after the recent PSL matches, they were looking toward restoration of international cricket in the country.
