The ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 India will begin from October 5 with a conflict between defending champions England and the earlier version’s runners-up New Zealand at Ahmedabad.
Days after Pakistan turned the No. 1 ODI crew in the world, taking up Australia, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) on Monday unveiled the ‘Star Nation’ jersey. The new jersey was unveiled at a ceremony held at Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore.
The ceremony was led by Zaka Ashraf, Chairman of the PCB Management Committee. The crew is making ready for the forthcoming ICC Cricket World Cup 2023, and Asia Cup 2023. “The Star Nation Jersey signifies more than a mere piece of apparel; it embodies the profound connection between Pakistan’s cricketing heroes and their steadfast supporters. Drawing inspiration from celestial bodies, each star symbolises brilliance, aspiration, and the radiant glow of cricketing achievements. This design philosophy encapsulates the spirit of cricketing excellence, resonating deeply with every Pakistani cricket enthusiast,” it added.
Zaka Ashraf mentioned the ‘Star Nation’ Jersey bears witness to the “enduring bond between our cricketers and the passionate fans who stand by them through every match”. “This jersey encapsulates our wealthy cricketing heritage and the luminous future that awaits.”
