Miraz is leading from the front. He is a very talented cricketer and a top
all-rounder of Bangladesh national team.
On the other hand, Walton is the top brand of technological products in
Bangladesh. We are going to obtain the global market very soon.
Terming Miraz as a star of Bangladesh cricket, he said Walton is also a
star in country’s technology-based electronic products. These two stars have
joined together. We welcome Miraz as a new member of Walton family. We want

familiar name in country’s cricket arena. They are not only sponsoring in all
kinds of games, but also patronizing players. They made me Youth Ambassador
when I had less popularity. They have appointed me as Sports Ambassador
today. This is really a great honor for me. I consider myself as a member of
Walton family. I will try my best to represent Walton positively at home and
abroad and brighten the brand image of the company.
