Pakistan captain Babar Azam has refused to wear and endorse the logo of a betting firm during the upcoming Lanka Premier League, even as betting companies sponsor many franchises of the Pakistan Super League.
A source close to the player said that Babar had incorporated a clause that he wouldn't be involved in the promotion of betting firms when he signed a deal to play in the LPL this year.
"Most of the Pakistani players are telling franchise owners and league organisers they don't want to be associated with wearing logos and endorsing them if they belong to any betting company including through surrogate advertising," the source said.
