PCB to Undertake Childhood & Breast Cancer Awareness During PSL 2022

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) will spread awareness for childhood and breast cancer during the PSL 2022 tournament by using the popularity and reach of the Pakistan Super League as the seventh edition of the annual tournament is scheduled to start from 27 January 2022.

The two initiatives have turned into a HBL PSL tradition since the PCB first marked the Pink Ribbon Day during the 2018 edition, while the Golden Ribbon Day was organized in the 2019 edition.

On 4 February, the day when Karachi Kings play Peshawar Zalmi, PCB will mark Pink Ribbon Day and the National Stadium in Karachi will turn pink to create awareness about breast cancer. The contesting teams in the PSL 7 match will don pink caps and ribbons and awareness messages about childhood and breast cancer will be displayed inside the stadium.

The Peshawar Zalmi and Quetta Gladiators players will wear golden caps and ribbons on 15 February to mark Golden Ribbon Day to create awareness about childhood cancer. The Gaddafi Stadium, the home of Pakistan cricket, will turn golden and the teams will present signed shirts to two cancer patients from a safe distance. Awareness messages about childhood cancer will be displayed inside the stadium.

“The HBL PSL has emerged as the biggest Pakistani brand and we have decided to use its reach once again to create awareness about the breast and childhood cancer.” PCB Chief Operating Office and HBL PSL Tournament Director Salman Naseer. “Cricket is the most followed sport in the country and it unites and binds our people together. As in the past, the PCB will continue to make its efforts to create awareness about the challenges our society face.”
