He may be Bangladesh's biggest cricket star, but Mashrafe Mortaza insists he is not another Imran Khan, Pakistan's cricketing superhero-turned-prime minister. Contesting a seat in the national parliament for the ruling Awami League party in the December 30 elections, Mashrafe says he just wants to do more for sports and charity.
"To be honest, the level where Imran Khan has reached, people cannot always reach there even if they want to," Mashrafe said. "My desire is to do something for sports... since I am a sportsman, my wish is limited here. I will work for my region to see if I can do something good."
