The 24-karat Supernova Trophy, as it will be known, was crafted in Pakistan and serves as a testament to the nation’s skilled artisans and the Pakistan Cricket Board’s commitment to helping out regional companies. The national cricket team’s motto is “Unity, Passion, and Strength,” and the three pillars of the trophy are each adorned with 9,907 sparkling zircon stones to symbolize this. The main pillar at the back is further adorned with crystals to symbolize the commitment and effort required to ensure the team’s success.
