Talent from KP will help Pakistan win World Cup again: Imran

With talented players from [Khyber] Pakhtunkhwa playing in the team, Pakistan will win the World Cup once again,” said Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) Chief Imran Khan in an impassioned speech at Talent Hunt Scheme ceremony in Peshawar.

The talent hunt will be used to select eight teams, said Imran, adding that those teams will compete against each other and the final team will be selected after the competition.

Gesturing at the ground in front of him, Imran said that he had been selected during a talent hunt in Lahore at a ground just like this one.

“I am very happy that the governor has given permission to open a cricket academy in FATA to aid in the search for talent,” Imran said, adding that the best way to search for talent was through competitions.

Imran said that he hopes that by the end of six months his earlier promise of a cricket ground in every district will be realised, adding that by the end of the year, there will be a sports ground in every union council.

Cricketer Shahid Afridi was also present at the event and he advised the young cricketers participating in the talent hunt to make the most of the opportunity given to them by Imran Khan. Afridi also said there is more talent in FATA than the rest of the country.

There is another perspective, engaging youth in sports and arts will also help counter extremist sentiments.
