 Imran Ahmad Khan Niazi (Urdu: عمران احمد خان نیازی) (born 5 October 1952) is a Pakistani politician. He was the 22nd Prime Minister of Pakistan from 2018 to 2022. Before entering politics Khan was a cricketer and played for international cricket for two decades in the late 20th century.[8][9]

Cricket career:

Khan started his career as a first-class cricketer in Lahore in 1968. During his studies at the University of Oxford, he also played for their Blue's Cricket team.[10] In 1971, he played his first international test match for Pakistan against England.[11] In 1974, he played his first One-day international against England.[11]
Khan also became the second fastest all-rounder to reach the mark of 3000 runs and 300 wickets. He also has the second best batting average in test cricket at position 6.[12]
Khan became the captain of Pakistan side in 1982, becoming one of the most successful captains with 91 wins in tests and ODIs.[13]

Political career:

Khan became a politician in the mid-1990s by founding his political party Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) in 1996. He made a cancer hospital, Shaukat Khanum, in memory of his mother who also died of cancer. He supported president Pervez Musharraf from 1999.[14] In 2007, he changed his view and then opposed Musharraf.[15]

On July 26, 2018, Khan was elected Prime Minister despite many people accusing Khan's campaign of rigging the election.[16] Khan took oath as Prime Minister of Pakistan on 18 August 2018.[17]

On April 3, 2022, he told President Arif Alvi to dissolve the National Assembly after a no-confidence motion against him failed.[18] However, four days later on April 7, the Supreme Court later said what Khan did was illegal.[19] A motion of no confidence was soon passed against Khan on April 10, 2022 becoming the first prime minister in Pakistan to be removed from office by a vote of no confidence.[20][21][22]

On November 3, 2022, in Wazirabad, Punjab, Khan was shot while giving a speech, but he survived the assassination attempt.

On 9 May 2023 Khan was arrested for corruption at the High Court in Islamabad.[23]
