KARACHI: The National Stadium is set to pay tribute to Pakistan’s cricket legends by renaming several enclosures as construction nears completion for the upcoming Champions Trophy 2025.
The Majid Khan Enclosure will be renamed the Younis Khan Enclosure, while the Quaid Enclosure will be renamed in honor of Shahid Afridi. Similarly, the Zaheer Abbas Enclosure will now commemorate Nazar Mohammad.
Two VVIP enclosures in a newly constructed ground-level building, with a seating capacity of 1,050, will be named the Majid Khan Enclosure and Zaheer Abbas Enclosure, further cementing the legacy of these cricket greats.
According to recent updates, significant progress has been made on the far-end building of the National Stadium. Three floors are complete, and partition work is underway on the top floor.
Meanwhile, the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) is nearly finished, with final cleaning and touch-ups in progress. Preparations for two VVIP stands at ground level are also advancing rapidly as part of the ongoing developments.
Additionally, the construction of the National Bank Stadium is in its final stages. Project Director Bilal Chohan has assured that the building will be completed by January 31.
