The former Pakistan cricket captain Imran Khan wanted to become the first prime minister in his country’s history to bat through to the close of his five-year term. Instead, his innings has been cut short after less than four years by a no-confidence vote, after a political crisis over economic troubles and simmering inflation. Khan proved a less able head of government than he was a cricketer or, indeed, opposition leader. Yet his skills as the latter mean he could continue to be a political disrupter.
巴基斯坦前板球隊隊長伊姆蘭•汗(Imran Khan)曾希望成爲該國歷史上首位做滿五年任期的總理。但事與願違,他的任期還不到四年就因一次不信任投票而告終,先前,由於經濟困境和快速上升的通貨膨脹,巴基斯坦發生了政治危機。事實證明,汗作爲政府首腦的能力不及他作爲板球運動員的能力,甚至也不及作爲反對派領袖的能力。然而,他有能力做反對派領袖,意味著他可能會繼續充當政治攪局者。
