Imran Khan was a great player precisely for that reason. He got Indian umpires for Pakistan’s home series against the mighty West Indies in 1986-97 long before the world heard the word neutral umpires as he wanted to beat West Indies fair and square.
And for that 1989 series against India he got English umpires which again was unheard of.
Imran was Imran boss
