Imran Khan Niazi (Urdu: عمران خان نیازی; born 25 November 1952) is a Pakistani politician and former cricketer, playing international cricket for two decades in the late twentieth century. After retiring, he entered politics. Currently, besides his political activism, Khan is also a philanthropist, cricket commentator, Chancellor of the University of Bradford and Founder and Chairman Board of Governors of Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital & Research Centre.
Arguably Pakistan's most successful cricket captain, Khan played for the Pakistani cricket team from 1971 to 1992 and served as its captain intermittently throughout 1982–1992. After retiring from cricket at the end of the 1987 World Cup, he was called back to join the team in 1988. At 39, Khan led his teammates to Pakistan's first and only World Cup victory in 1992. He has a record of 3807 runs and 362 wickets in Test cricket, making him one of eight world cricketers to have achieved an 'All-rounder's Triple' in Test matches. On 14 July 2010, Khan was inducted into the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame.
Katseessani kirkas valo
matkaan läpi autiuden.
Kenttä taistelun taakse jäänyt
vain toistaa vaimeita kirouksiaan.
Veljeni ja viholliseni;
ei kukaan heistä sano sanaakaan.
Miekan terän tunsin rinnassani,
nyt kuulen kutsun Tuonelan.
Sade huuhtoo tuhot taistelun,
vereni virtaansa vie.
Alla tähtitaivaan pohjoisen
vaan en (enää) päällä maan...
Turhaan pelkäisin saapumista
kuolemattomien keskuuteen.
Käsi kädessä ikuisuuden
hyppään reunalta tyhjyyden.
