KARACHI: Former England all-rounder Ian Botham has said that Pakistan’s 1992 World Cup winning captain Imran Khan was more charismatic than him, Indian all-rounder Kapil Dev and Richard Hadlee of New Zealand.

The four players were considered as the best all-rounders of their time.

Botham praised Imran recently while appearing in an online session hosted by Playwrite Foundation.

He said that it was a great honor for him to have played at a time when the game was garnered with legendary players like Imran, Kapil and Hadlee.

Botham said it never happened that so many all-rounders adorned the game in an era as it happened in his playing days, which produced great rivalries. He went to say that Imran was the most charismatic of the four all-rounders.
