The 30-year-old cricketer Imran Muhammad from the Dera Ismail Khan district in Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province left his village at 18 to chase his dreams. Now living in Muscat, Oman, Imran juggles his love for cricket with a job installing CCTV cameras.

Imran has performed well in the tournament, claiming 21 wickets in 14 matches with an average of 10.71 and an economy rate of 8.65. Unfortunately, his team, IAS Invincibles, is currently second from the bottom with just five wins from 15 matches, totaling 11 points.
