During his visit, Naqvi will review the ongoing construction work at the National Stadium, where upgrades are underway to host the highly anticipated cricket tournament.

The construction work includes enhancements to the stadium facilities, and the PCB Chairman will be briefed by engineers on the progress.

In addition to reviewing the stadium upgrades, Naqvi’s visit will also hold discussions with foreign companies regarding plans to build hotels in Karachi and Lahore.
