Pak vs Eng series to be broadcast in Pakistan
Pak vs Eng series to be broadcast in Pakistan!
After reports of series could not be broadcast in the country owning to the restrictions with the Indian company, it emerges on Friday that the matter has been taken care of.
Pakistan and England will play the first ODI on July 8.
Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Fawad Chaudhry, who Indian broadcasters Star and Asia had rejected a contract request by the PTV, in a tweet shared on Friday said that the government “has found a way to broadcast the Pakistan-England series.”
“Congratulations to Multan Sultans for becoming the new [PSL] champions,” he tweeted.
“I thank Rizwan, Babar Azam, other Pakistani and foreign heroes who partook in this fabulous cricket event.”
“We have solved the problem of broadcasting the Pakistan-England cricket series,” he added.
ملتان سلطانز کو نیا چمپئین بننے پر بہت مبارک، رضوان ،بابر اعظم اور پاکستانی ہیروزکے ساتھ ان تمام غیر ملکی ہیروز کا بھی شکریہ جنہوں نے کرکٹ کا یہ شاندار میلہ سجایا، اب اگلا میلہ سجنے کو ہے اور یہاں میں یہ بھی بتاتا چلوں کہ ہم نے انگلینڈ پاکستان سیریز دکھانے کا مسئلہ حل کر لیا ہے
