Chairman of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) Najam Sethi has asked the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) to change the name of the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore to Edhi Stadium in order to pay tribute to the late philanthropist.
In a tweet, the 68-year-old asked PCB’s Board of Governance (BoG) to approve his suggestion.
I propose to change the name of Lahore's Gadafi Stadium to Edhi Stadium. PCB BoG members may kindly approve my request.
