Dubai: Leading Dubai-based real estate developer MH Developers has appointed Afghan cricket legend Rashid Khan as its brand ambassador, marking a strategic alliance during a robust surge in Dubai’s property market.

The announcement comes at a time when Dubai’s real estate sector is flourishing, with average property prices rising by 15% and transaction volumes up by 20% year-on-year in the first half of 2025. Experts attribute this performance to Dubai’s stable economy, visionary governance, and investor-friendly climate—making it a safe haven for global real estate investors.

Murtaza Hashmi, CEO of MH Developers, views this partnership as a pivotal move to harness the city’s economic momentum and widen the company’s brand appeal. “Dubai’s regulatory strength and regional security position it as a preferred market for high-quality real estate investment. Rashid Khan’s unwavering discipline and international acclaim mirror the values we uphold at MH Developers,” Hashmi said. “Together, we aim to reach broader audiences and deliver premium developments aligned with Dubai’s dynamic growth.”

Rashid Khan is widely regarded as one of cricket’s finest T20 players, holding the record for fastest to 100 wickets in T20 internationals. A figure of consistency and excellence, Khan has helped elevate Afghan cricket on the global stage and is among the most recognised and respected athletes in the sport.

Speaking on the partnership, Rashid Khan remarked, “The UAE, and Dubai in particular, have played a vital role in the growth of Afghan cricket. It feels deeply personal to now represent a homegrown Dubai brand during such an exciting period for the city’s future. MH Developers is about building more than properties—it’s about building dreams and stability, and I’m proud to be part of that.”

The collaboration aims to amplify MH Developers’ visibility and credibility while reinforcing Dubai’s reputation as a city where global talent, investment, and innovation converge. With ongoing projects blending architectural sophistication and secure investment returns, MH Developers is well-positioned to lead in the emirate’s evolving real estate narrative.
