Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan has vowed to “fix” the national team so that they will be more “professional” and have a better chance of winning the 2023 World Cup.

Imran’s comments come after the men in green failed to qualify for the semi-finals at the recently concluded World Cup.

Despite beating England, South Africa, New Zealand, Afghanistan and Bangladesh, Pakistan still failed to advance to the last four as New Zealand had a better net run rate than them.

We will fix the system and bring one in [where] the best talent comes forward,” Imran, who led Pakistan to World Cup glory in 1992, was quoted as saying by Saj Sadiq on Twitter.
