“Pakistan is a cricket-loving country, and possesses rich talent, but lacks the infrastructure to scout emerging cricketers coming from smaller cities and towns. Through Jazz Rising Stars, we were determined to showcase this raw talent by grooming and training these players on international standards,” said ShoaibEhsan Aftab, Director Marketing – Jazz, at the award ceremony.
“This award is a testament to our commitment in connecting with the nation’s cricketing roots through a wide-scale campaign and a compliment to the hard work which went behind it. I would like to congratulate our partner agencies as well, who played an equally important role in making Jazz Rising Stars a success” he further added.
