PSL-10 Trophy ‘Luminara’ unveiled in Karachi

Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) on Friday unveiled HBL Pakistan Super League-10 trophy ‘Luminara’ in Karachi, reported 24NewsHD TV channel.

The silverware was unveiled in a three-minute-long video, shot at Karachi’s coastal waters, where a professional diver, with assistance from the Pakistan Navy, recovered a treasure chest and presented the trophy to PSL stakeholder.

The unveiling promo featured PCB officials, including chairman Mohsin Naqvi, franchise representatives and renowned cricketers like Sarfaraz Ahmed and Rumman Raees.

“The unveiling of ‘Luminara’ at sea is a testament to the league’s commitment to innovation and excellence. As we celebrate a decade of HBL PSL, this trophy represents the league’s shining legacy and its bright future,” said Naqvi in a PCB-released statement.

Luminara, a trophy crafted from a single sheet of solid silver, features intricately machined stone settings. Weighing 10 kilograms, it is embellished with 22,850 high-luster zircon stones.

The name Luminara is derived from the Latin word ‘luminare’ meaning ‘torch’ and ‘lumens’ meaning ‘light.’

It is pertinent to mention that the highly anticipated 10th edition of the HBL Pakistan Super League (PSL) is set to commence on Friday, April 11, with defending champions Islamabad United taking on two-time winners Lahore Qalandars at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.
