ISLAMABAD: UK High Commissioner in Pakistan Dr. Christian Turner hoped that his country’s cricket team might play a cricket match at what he thinks ‘most beautiful’ Gwadar Cricket Stadium in southwestern province of Pakistan.
Turner expressed it during his visit to the scenic cricket stadium where he presided over the coin toss for the first exhibition match between Gwadar Dolphins and Showbiz Sharks. The match was dedicated to Pakistan climbing hero Muhammad Ali Sadpara, who was declared dead by family on Thursday, days after he went missing during K2 expedition.
Dr Turner said, “Gwadar has so much potential as a cricket venue. As we know the UK and Pakistan relationship is very strong because cricket is in our blood.
“The cricket ground in Gwadar, I think, is the most beautiful in the world. I hope the England Cricket Team might play here one day.”
