ISLAMABAD: Cricketer-turned-politician Prime Minister Imran Khan often reminisces about the days of his cricket glory, sharing pictures from decades ago captioned ‘Old Time Photos’.
Similarly, PM Imran on Sunday shared a beautiful memory wherein he is seen receiving a flower bouquet during Pakistan cricket team’s tour of England more than 30 years ago.
Pakistan had played a five-match Test series against England and won.
The 1987 England tour was the first time that Pakistan won a Test series in the UK against England.
It is also the only innings in Test match history where the Green Shirts scored 708 without a wide ball.
The Pakistan team at that time was “probably the finest in the country’s history”, noted ESPN Cricinfo.
Earlier this week, the premier had shared an old and rarely-seen picture of himself with his cousins. That image showed a young PM Imran Khan standing with five cousins as they all smiled at the camera.
Prior to that, he had posted an old, black-and-white photo of himself when he used to captain the Pakistan cricket team. He was seen sitting at a press briefing, with various microphones pointing towards him.
