Re: Pakistan's first SPORTS channel approved
Hear hear! Extremely glad to read this piece of news.
Part of the major reason why this project has now been given a green signal for its official launching as such was because of the decision taken by Pakistan Television (PTV) that it would not be able to telecast domestic cricket as there was no commercial interest in it. Now that a separate and an independant channel will be up and running within the next year or so, I am sure the entire coverage of domestic matches from Quaid-e-Azam Trophy, Patron's Trophy to the ABN AMRO Cups will soon be broadcasted, which will not only raise the credentials and the value of our younger generation of cricketers, but it will also provide them with a major transmission and channel through which their performances will likely to not go unnoticed, as they make their headways to the National team and start knocking the doors of our selectors. Further reach in the population will only result in the positives of this sport.
Very well done and equally an important segue in the initiation of the nourishing and flourishment of our future generation!
