New campaign for the treatment of Imran Khan…14 veterans including Kapil Dev, Sunil Gavaskar wrote a letter to the PAK government

Sports: From the cricket field to politics, Imran Khan has always impressed everyone with his bravery and leadership. The reports of the deteriorating eyesight and deteriorating health of this great all-rounder, who won the 1992 World Cup, in jail have worried former captains around the world. 14 former captains, including Indian greats like Sunil Gavaskar and Kapil Dev, have written an open letter, in which they have appealed for dignified treatment and proper treatment of Imran. This step reflects the solidarity and human values ​​of cricket.

Serious concern over Imran’s health

Let us tell you that the recent reports of Imran Khan, who has been in jail for two and a half years, show that the vision in his right eye has decreased by 85 percent. Family and supporters allege that the condition worsened due to not getting timely treatment. Former captains considered it very serious and said that such a situation should not happen to any former national leader.

Joint letter of 14 veterans

This letter was prepared by Greg Chappell, which is signed by Sunil Gavaskar, Kapil Dev, Allan Border, Steve Waugh, Ian Chappell, Belinda Clark, Michael Atherton, Nasser Hussain, Michael Brierley, David Gower, Kim Hughes, Clive Lloyd and John Wright. All these five are from Test playing countries, but no former captain of Pakistan is included in it.

Demands and basis of appeal

The former captains have demanded that Imran should get immediate treatment from doctors of his choice, regular meetings with the family and the legal process should proceed impartially without delay. He clarified that this appeal is not for any legal intervention, but in the spirit of fair play and humanity of the game. Cricket has always connected countries.

unity of cricket world

Last week, former Pakistani cricketers like Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis and Shahid Afridi had demanded better treatment for Imran on social media. Now this voice has been raised at the international level, which reminds of Imran’s cricket contribution and the 1992 World Cup. This incident shows that respect and dignity must be maintained even outside the sports field.

message of sportsmanship

The former captains wrote in the letter that in cricket, the match ends with the fall of the stumps, but respect always remains. Imran followed this spirit in his career. Now is the time that the Government of Pakistan should also follow the principles of justice and decency. This appeal is a symbol of solidarity for the entire cricket world.
