ISLAMABAD: After the announcement of superstar Fawad Khan as their team ambassador, the Islamabad United (ISLU) have hit another SIXER by announcing Ali Zafar as PSL ambassador.
If having the multitalented Fawad as ambassador was not enough of a feat, the team has managed to bag another achievement. Now by partnering with Ali Zafar too, ISLU becomes the only participating team in the Pakistan Super League (PSL), the biggest cricketing event in the recent history of the country, to have clinched two of the most popular and most successful names in entertainment industry of the country.
Cherry on the cake is the fact that Ali is also the face of PSL.
There could not have been better choices than Ali and Fawad, the two most recognizable faces in the country, representing the team. Both stars have managed to make a huge impact as outstanding singers as well as versatile actors, at home and abroad.
About being in the ISLU team now Ali said “It’s really surreal, interesting and strange how things come together. As a child, I inspired to be a cricketer, a passion which was later replaced by wanting to become a singer.”
ISLU is the nly PSL participant team to have got their hands on some of the biggest names in both sports and entertainment in different roles. One of the best cricketers in Pakistan Misbahul Haq is the captain of ISLU, the biggest Australian player Shane Watson is part of the team and legendary all-rounder Wasim Akram is the team director.
The vision of the team, according to the owners is to provide a truly global experience on sports entertainment; a fan base which is loyal, aware and supportive of the sport and the franchise; an aspirational beacon for up and coming players to strive for excellence in cricket for Pakistan in particular and for the world at large.
An eco-system for the promotion of cricket in particular, and sports in general, in Pakistan through close partnership with PCB; a truly professionally run organisation with exceptional standards of corporate governance and international best practices; promotion of Pakistan through sports and involvement of internationally known figures into Pakistan; and a responsible member on CSR.
