In an exhibition match prior to the eighth Pakistan Super League (PSL) season, Peshawar Zalmi captain Babar Azam won the toss and elected to bowl first against Quetta Gladiators.
The installation of up to 16 HD cameras, including a drone, will generate live cricket entertainment that will be shown on PTV Sports.
For the exhibition game, however, a unique pitch has been prepared.
In order to accommodate fans, temporary seats have also been put in the stands.
It should be mentioned that the match’s tickets were completely sold out in just two days.

Several days ago, big groups of supporters began congregating in front of the main gate of the Bugti Stadium and requesting tickets, a security officer informed geosuper.tv.
“We are tired of telling them again and again, ‘there are no tickets in the stadium’. They are complaining that they didn’t know where to get tickets from,” he shared.
“We know they are too excited but they need to understand that there is a certain capacity in the stadium. Not everyone can go inside and watch the match. We are having arguments with them for last couple of days. It’s getting tough for us,” he lamented.
