Here is how much money PCB spent on stadiums' renovation

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) will take control of two renovated cricket stadiums—National Stadium in Karachi (NSK) and Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore—on February 5. Both the arenas have been upgraded just two weeks before the Champions Trophy, scheduled to begin on February 19.

According to reports, the PCB has spent PKR 12 billion on upgrading the stadiums in Karachi, Lahore, and Rawalpindi. 

The stadiums have been revamped to meet international standards, with improvements being tested during a tri-series featuring Pakistan, South Africa, and New Zealand. 

Despite ongoing work, PCB officials are confident the renovations will be complete by the end of January.

A new five-story building at NSK includes modern facilities like anti-corruption units, physio rooms, and updated dressing rooms. Additional upgrades include better seating, new washrooms, a pedestrian bridge, digital scoreboards, and advanced LED floodlights.

Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore has undergone similar improvements, ensuring a better experience for players and fans. These changes mark a big step in improving cricket infrastructure in Pakistan ahead of the mega event.
