Cricket’s biggest names are stepping up when it matters most. Shahid Afridi, Younis Khan, and Shoaib Akhtar will take the field in the upcoming Flood Relief Exhibition Match, organised by Peshawar Zalmi to support communities affected by the devastating floods in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

Peshawar Zalmi’s owner, Javed Afridi, said: “Cricket has always been a unifying force… This is more than a match. It is our duty to stand by those in need.

Scheduled for 30 August 2025 at the Imran Khan Stadium, Peshawar, this match, under the slogan “Khel Se Khidmat” brings together a star-studded 22-player roster, including both current icons (like Babar Azam, Mohammad Hafeez) and legendary greats such as Waqar Younis, Mohammad Irfan, Azhar Mahmood, Saeed Ajmal, and Rashid Latif.

This marks one of the most celebrated cricket lineups in recent memory, designed to draw fans and channel the excitement toward a noble mission. KP’s Sports Minister, Syed Fakhar Jahan, added: “Sports is not just entertainment but also empathy and service. This match reflects our solidarity with those who suffered.”

All ticket proceeds will go directly toward flood relief and rehabilitation efforts across KP, transforming a cricket event into a community lifeline.
