Pink Power on the Pitch The Men in Green turned pink for a cause! During the first T20I against South Africa, the Pakistan cricket team wore pink jerseys to support breast cancer awareness and honor those fighting the disease.
October is observed as Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and this initiative highlights the Pakistan Cricket Board’s ongoing efforts to use sports as a medium for social change. The PCB has partnered with several health organizations in recent years to run similar campaigns in domestic and international matches.
Players like Babar Azam and Shaheen Afridi proudly sported the pink attire, with many dedicating the match to women affected by cancer. The pink color symbolizes hope, courage, and strength — reminding fans that early detection can save lives.
The campaign received widespread appreciation from fans and international cricketing bodies, proving once again that cricket can be a force for good beyond the scoreboard.
