Naqvi shared that the official opening of the newly upgraded Gaddafi Stadium would take place in the first week of February. He expressed pride in the work done, saying, “Our entire team worked tirelessly to make the impossible task possible. The Champions Trophy tournament is an honor for Pakistan, and we will continue to enhance our country’s reputation.”
