da 888casino： What influence did the game have on where Imran Khan is today? A new book attempts to tell all
da stake casino： Sharda Ugra28-Jan-2012Finally, it is revealed. Imran Khan still “cringes” when he thinks about his victory speech after the 1992 World Cup final. He’s even willing to accept that it was “terrible”. But it doesn’t matter anymore. As it is, Imran has reached the point where he says he doesn’t care what anyone thinks about him.Twenty years after he retired from international cricket, Imran has produced a third personalised account of his life. begins not with Imran holding aloft the World Cup but instead being pushed around by the angry student wing of a religious party. A few pages later he scales a garden wall to escape arrest by the police. Him? The World Cup winner? Captain Fantastic, banana inswinger, swinger lifestyle, “Big Boys Play At Night” t-shirt. Police? Jail? What happened to him? Where did that other guy go?His answer is simple. Faith, he says has “liberated me from my fears: fear of failure, fear of death, fear of losing my livelihood, fear of being humiliated by others… I cannot even imagine life without a passion and a purpose; once I had cricket, now I have my political struggle.”Imran Khan’s politics can be argued over, he can be voted for or against. Pakistan, though, remains engaging, because it is a revealing portrait of a transformation. Of how the playboy became a philanthropist, worldly superstar turned spiritual. Of how an adored cricketing hero became a public figure ready even to be ridiculed. He doesn’t care what you think about him anyway – he is in pursuit of his purpose.Pakistan: A Personal History
