Ramiz Raja Former Pakistani cricketer turned commentator is confident that PM Imran Khan’s governance would lead Pakistan towards heights of success, despite the current criticism towards his government.
He appeared on the special World Cup 2019 episode on the Rewind with Samina Peerzada, the first ever Pakistani digital talk show.
Raja’s interview with Samina Peerzada is available on YouTube, comprises of a few untold stories and details of life events.
The most noticable thing he shared were about making Pakistan great again and current political and social situation.
This conversation revealed a new perspective of his personality, as people know him for being a crickter and a cricket commentator.
When asked about Imran Khan he stressed that IK is the best thing which ever happened to Pakistan, “Mark my words, Imran Khan will succeed”, he said.
Imran Khan was the only person who kept saying that Pakistan will win the world cup in 1992, despite the early loses at the tournament, and we did win the world cup.
Here is what Ramiz Raja said while talking about Pakistani politics, Imran Khan and World Cup 1992.
Ramiz Raja will be soon flying to England where he will be part of the ICC World Cup 2019 as a commentator.
In the show, he also revealed how he ended up as a commentator after retirement from cricket, at first he refused because he felt being commentator is a job for an elderly person. However, his perspective changed and now he is regarded as one of the best cricket commentators from Pakistan.
Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan has promised Pakistani-Americans that he is working on a plan to develop the “best cricket team of the world” following the debacle of the country in the recently-concluded ICC World Cup in the UK.
The cricketer-turned-politician said this while addressing a gathering of Pakistani-Americans at Capital One Arena in downtown Washington DC on Sunday.
Referring to the debacle of the Pakistani team in the recently-concluded ICC World Cup cricket tournament, Khan said that he has “started working on developing the best cricket team of the world in the next tournament, by bringing the best players in the team”.
“Remember my words,” the prime minister, who led Pakistan to victory at the 1992 Cricket World Cup, said.
Khan, however, did not divulge details about his plans.
He is currently on a three-day visit of the US and is scheduled to meet President Donald Trump at the White House on Monday.
Khan had given some pep talk to the country’s cricket team to banish the fear of losing to India in the crucial ICC Cricket World Cup match on June 16, saying the fear of losing leads to a negative and defensive strategy.
Pakistan, which lost the match against India, could not make it to the semi-final round of the World Cup and remained on the fifth spot. The tournament was won by England for the first time.
Former chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board Najam Sethi has blamed the present management of the board for the national team’s poor show in the World Cup. CONGRATULATIONS ….
