Karachi (PTI): Pakistan's World Cup winning captain will not be attending the ceremony to induct three former stars in the ICC's Hall of Fame due to political commitments, the country's cricket board chief Ejaz Butt said on Friday.
Imran, along with Hanif Mohammad and Javed Miandad were to be awarded the ICC Hall of Fame caps on the first day of Pakistan's second Test against Sri Lanka in Lahore, but PCB chairman Ejaz Butt said Imran, who heads his won political party Tehreek-e-Insaaf, would not be able to attend the ceremony.
"He has informed us he can't attend the ceremony because he is very busy with his party due to the political issues in the country," Butt said, adding the board would receive the cap in his honour.
Former Test captains Mohammad and Miandad would be in Lahore to attend the ceremony.
