Download or read book Another Perspective written by Taher Memon with Salim Parvez and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2018-07-10 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Another Perspective provides a unique point of view on the revamping and development of Pakistan cricket. With a focus on a critical time period (1977 to 1998) left mostly unexplored by the body of cricket historians, the publication seeks to delve deeper into the behind the scenes of cricket, not only as a popular sport, but as one of the most expansive entertainment industries of Pakistan. A communications industry veteran, Taher Memon stepped into the sporting sphere with a profile in advertising, marketing and communication with a multinational, and, over a period spanning two decades, left his own indelible mark on the cricket industry. Encouraged by Salim Parvez, cricket author and historian, he rose to the challenge of illuminating a phase of cricket history which featured, among many firsts of sports sponsorship in Pakistan, the memorable 1987 and 1996 World Cup events co-hosted by the Pakistan Cricket Board. Taher takes the reader through this previously uncharted territory, illustrating his account with factual evidence built on documents, photographs and video footage from his private archive. Through the lens of Pakistani culture and business, one can experience the social and patriotic dimensions of cricket and its proliferation across the nation. In a manner that is both authentic and captivating, he enables the reader to navigate the rapidly changing and challenging environment during this transformative time in cricket history. This first-hand account examines the driving forces behind the growth of cricket in Pakistan and the tireless efforts put in by a single sponsor, which lifted the game to a higher level. Bringing light to operations that typically occupy our periphery, Another Perspective expands the scope of cricket.

Download or read book Sport Sponsorship and Public Health written by Robin Ireland and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-03-22 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the development of sport sponsorship and its impact on global public health. It argues that sport governing bodies should not continue to treat fans solely as consumers, and that a more ethical approach should be taken to sport sponsorship. Drawing on research from sport studies, marketing and public health, the book presents a brief history of advertising and marketing in sport, including the importance of tobacco in the development of sport sponsorship, before exploring key aspects of the contemporary relationship between sport and corporate sponsors, including mega-events, digital technologies and brand engagement. It offers an in-depth case study of sponsorship in the English Premier League – one of the world’s most successful sporting properties – before considering how sport might be better regulated, now and in the future, to better protect the interests of fans and other stakeholders from a health perspective. The book features a number of insightful images showcasing sport sponsorship in connection with tobacco, mega-events, alcohol, junk food and drink, and gambling over the years. Addressing a topical and hugely important issue, this is important reading for students, researchers, practitioners and policy makers with an interest in sport business and management, the ethics of sport, physical activity and health, event studies, marketing or public health.
Download or read book Maiden Innings written by Kapil Pathare and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2023-04-20 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women’s Cricket has come a long way, with many people still unaware of its progress. Primarily male-dominated in India, the game has often been associated with names like Kapil Dev, Sunil Gavaskar, Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid and off-late, the swashbuckling Virat Kohli. Amidst all this, the mantle of taking Indian women’s cricket forward has been quietly shouldered by a very committed team of young women who made it big on the international cricket scene by making it to the finals of the Women’s Cricket World Cup in 2017. The gusto with which the India eves brought India to the anvil victory, once again only reconfirms the growing, maturing capabilities of Indian women in an erstwhile male-dominated sport. Each woman in the team has a specific character that appears louder in their performance than in their personality while giving their best for the country. Most of them come from humble, poor backgrounds but with far much richer dreams to make their country proud. Their effort should not be looked upon merely as a performance but should be seen in the light of an excruciating struggle from a tender age to the highest level of the game. The book emphasizes displaying these strong characters as great role models for women in other sports, industries and even the least privileged section of society to follow and improve their lives.
