Prominent Pakistani cricket stars, Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan have taken a notable step by incorporating a distinctive clause into their contracts with different franchise T20 leagues.
The extended clause
The clause outlines their decision to abstain from promoting products or services falling under specific categories, including tobacco, alcohol, surrogate betting, pork items, and adult entertainment. Their principled stance mirrors their deep-rooted religious, cultural, and personal values.
The move signifies a remarkable commitment to their beliefs, even in the face of potentially lucrative promotional opportunities. Muhammed Rizwan’s recent action in the PSL, where he concealed a betting sponsor’s logo with tape, and Babar Azam’s decision to not endorse a betting sponsor in the recent LPL, highlight their consistent dedication to upholding their principles.
