Former cricket star Imran Khan has been elected prime minister of Pakistan. His PTI party won the most seats in July’s elections – setting up Mr Khan to become PM with the help of small parties, more than two decades after he first entered politics.

The charismatic sports star, who captained Pakistan to a World Cup victory in 1992, has long shed his celebrity playboy image and now styles himself as a pious, populist, anti-poverty reformer. He ran on an anti-corruption platform that pledged to improve the lives of the country’s poor with an “Islamic welfare state”.

Speaking after the results, the prime minister-elect vowed to bring about the “change that this nation was longing for.”

“I did not climb on any dictator’s shoulders; I reached this place after struggling for 22 years.”
