ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chairman Imran Khan on Friday witnessed final of the Insaf Super League cricket tournament.
Pictures circulating on social media websites showed a huge crowd at the closing ceremony of the ISL where the cricket turned politician delivered a speech, claiming the third edition of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) would be held under PTI government at the centre.
According to a statement issued by the PTI, Imran Khan was the chief guest on the occasion who was warmly welcomed by the crowd.
Khan drew criticism with his controversial remarks about the foreign players who attended the final of the second edition of the PSL in Lahore earlier this month.
The former cricket hero, who had earlier supported the idea of holding the final of the PSL in Pakistan, started criticizing the authorities once the Pakistan Cricket Board and the government finally decided to host the event in Punjab’s capital.
Khan called the decision as madness citing security concerns in the wake of deadly suicide bombings in Sindh, Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa last month.
