Pakistan captain Babar Azam and star wicketkeeper-batsman Mohammad Rizwan are scheduled to visit an Islamic center in the United States before the start of their T20 World Cup campaign next month.
The visit, which has been widely shared on social media, will see the cricket icons participate in a charity event at the Islamic Research Center in Dallas on June 1.
During the event, the cricketers will support efforts to provide interest-free loans and donations to students for their education. This philanthropic endeavor aligns with their commitment to giving back to the community and supporting educational initiatives.
Notably, Mohammad Rizwan has a history of engaging with Islamic centers during international tours. His previous visits to centers in New Zealand and Australia included giving lectures that garnered significant attention on social media.
The upcoming event in Dallas is expected to draw a large crowd, eager to see their cricket heroes and contribute to a noble cause.
It is worth noting that Pakistan's journey begins in Dallas, where they will take on co-host USA on June 6, followed by matches against India on June 9 and Canada on June 12 in New York. Their final league match against Ireland is slated for June 16 in Florida.
