Brisbane-based cricket enthusiast, Tariq Naveed, has shown his passion for the game in an extraordinary way by purchasing 800 tickets for the upcoming Pakistan-Australia T20 match at The Gabba.
Cricket Australia had designated these 800 tickets for a special Pakistan Fan Zone, providing an exclusive area for cricket lovers to cheer on the action.
Tariq Naveed’s unique gesture includes plans to create a human flag in the fan zone on match day, uniting fellow fans in a celebration of cricket. This effort is meant to foster an energetic and supportive environment for the players, showcasing how the love for cricket transcends boundaries.
“I’ve taken this step to show our support for the game and to create a memorable atmosphere for both teams. This is about celebrating cricket, bringing fans together, and giving everyone a day to remember,” Tariq said, highlighting the excitement within Brisbane’s cricket community.
The first T20I match between Pakistan and Australia will take place on 14 November at The Gabba, and fans are expecting an electric atmosphere filled with cheers and excitement.

Support Independent Community Journalism
Dear Reader,The Indian Sun exists for one reason: to tell stories that might otherwise go unheard.
We report on local councils, state politics, small businesses and cultural festivals. We focus on the Indian diaspora and the wider multicultural community with care, balance and accountability. We publish in print and online, send regular newsletters and produce video content. We also run media training programs to help community organisations share their own stories.
We operate independently.
Community journalism does not have the backing of large media corporations. Advertising revenue fluctuates. Platform algorithms change. Costs continue to rise. Yet the need for credible, grounded reporting in a multicultural Australia has never been greater.

• Coverage of local and state decisions that shape daily life
