Babar Azam Leads the Cause in Special Exhibition Game
In a powerful testament to cricket’s ability to bring people together during difficult times, Peshawar Zalmi will take on the Legends XI in a special charity match to raise funds for flood relief. The match, scheduled for August 30, 2025, will be played at the Imran Khan Cricket Stadium in Peshawar and is expected to draw a massive crowd.
Among the biggest highlights of the event is the participation of former Pakistan captain Babar Azam, who will return to the field for a noble cause. His presence has already sparked excitement among fans and is expected to boost support for the initiative.
The event comes in the wake of catastrophic flooding across various parts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, which has displaced thousands, destroyed homes, and severely impacted infrastructure. The match aims to raise both funds and awareness for the victims, many of whom are still struggling to recover.
100% of Ticket Sales to Support Flood Victims
Organised by Peshawar Zalmi, the match is more than just a sporting event—it’s a lifeline. All proceeds from ticket sales, which are available at major local sports complexes, will go directly toward relief and rehabilitation efforts. Organisers have promised full transparency and accountability in fund distribution.
Javed Afridi, Chairman of Peshawar Zalmi, highlighted the deeper mission behind the match:
“Cricket has always been a unifying force in Pakistan. This match channels our collective passion to support families who’ve lost everything. It’s our moral duty to stand with them.”
The Legends XI lineup is expected to include several former cricket greats, and anticipation for the event continues to build across social media and fan communities.
