Babar Azam, the captain of Peshawar Zalmi, won the toss and chose to bowl first against Quetta Gladiators in an exhibition game prior to the eighth Pakistan Super League (PSL) season.

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 media.

“We’re sick of telling them, ‘there are no tickets in the stadium,’ over and over. They’re grumbling about not knowing where to obtain tickets “He revealed.

“We understand that people are overjoyed, but they must recognise that the stadium has a limited capacity. Not everyone can watch the game inside. We’ve been arguing with them for the past few days. It’s becoming increasingly difficult for us, “He bemoaned.
