As the excitement builds for the Pakistan Super League (PSL 2024), the question arises: Will Imran Khan be able to watch the tournament from Adiala Jail? Imran Khan, currently incarcerated, has refrained from watching television in Adiyala Jail due to the absence of PTV Sports, the channel that aired the recent World Cup, showcasing his enduring interest in cricket. However, with PTV Sports not telecasting PSL 9, Khan is deprived of experiencing the month-long cricket extravaganza from within the confines of the jail.
Amidst the anticipation surrounding PSL 9, Pakistan’s political landscape remains tumultuous. The Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) appear to be aligning on crucial government positions, prompting a cautionary statement from Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) against what they perceive as a government formed on the basis of “stolen votes.”
Watching PTV in jail is punishment for Imran Khan
When asked about his knowledge of the ongoing political developments, Khan humorously remarked, “There’s a punishment which I’m facing from courts and there’s another punishment for me to watch PTV.” Despite injecting a moment of levity into the discussion, Khan emphasized his belief that watching PTV in jail constitutes the worst punishment for him, as inmates are only permitted access to the state-run channel while being denied private news channels.
From his confinement in Adiala Jail, Khan issued a warning against legitimizing a government formed through alleged electoral fraud, echoing the sentiments of his party amidst the shifting political landscape. Meanwhile, with PSL 9 set to commence on February 17, the opening match between Lahore Qalandars and Islamabad United at Gaddafi Stadium promises to kickstart the cricketing festivities after the grand opening ceremony.
