The development came during a meeting between the two at the Federal Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, the ministry said in a tweet. The minister also presented a shield to Ramiz during the meeting.
Meanwhile, Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Ramiz Raja chaired the 24th Pakistan Super League (PSL) General Council meeting. Ramiz Raja highlighted and appreciated the franchisees’ contribution in the growth, development and promotion of Pakistan cricket, and assured the team owners that he remained committed to upscaling, enhancing and strengthening the PSL brand.
He assured the team owners that he understood the challenges they faced and promised to work with them. The follow-up meeting is scheduled on Monday, 27 September.
