SunRisers Leeds spinner Abrar Ahmed spent the day in Bradford connecting with the local cricket community as part of the team's commitment to inspiring the next generation of fans and players across Yorkshire.
Hosted at Bradford Park Avenue, the event brought together young cricketers from local clubs and community groups for a unique opportunity to meet one of Pakistan's biggest cricket stars. The afternoon featured a special "Bat Against Abrar" challenge, with players from the Quaid e Azam Premier Cricket League stepping up to face six deliveries from the spinner, before taking part in a meet-and-greet with the SunRisers Leeds star.
Fans were able to watch Abrar in action, meet their cricketing hero, and enjoy an afternoon of cricket alongside family and friends ahead of SunRisers Leeds' home fixtures at Headingley. The community event forms part of SunRisers Leeds wider work across Yorkshire to grow the game, strengthen connections with local communities and inspire more people to experience The Hundred this summer.
SunRisers Leeds return to Headingley for four unmissable home matchdays, bringing world-class cricket, live entertainment and a brilliant day out for fans of all ages. Limited tickets are still available. Buy now: www.thehundred.com/tickets
