“Following the success of PSL, international cricket has finally come back to Pakistan. Being the first agency in Pakistan to acquire media and remarketing rights for an international series (TV + Digital), the Blitz group and our partners are honored to be a part of this endeavor and we are aligned across all mediums to make this event an eyebrow raiser across Pakistan’s media landscape.” – Ahsen Idris, CEO Blitz Advertising.

PCB is hosting a solid comeback of International Cricket on Pakistani soil, which is an undoubted reinforcement and reconciliation of faith in the ability and competency of the brand Pakistan. It is also an inspiring opportunity to gloat all the critics of hosting such events in Pakistan by launching a successfully rich and stirring event that holds the hearts of millions.
