Waheed Khan is an experienced broadcaster and journalist who has worked for Geo Super. He currently works for GTV and is also establishing a popular YouTube channel. He is an opinion maker and an anchor. I got the chance to ask him about his career, the landscape of sports media in Pakistan and also about various interesting cricketing matters. This is a unique opportunity to see Waheed Khan talking almost exclusively in English as this website specialises in doing interviews in English and being positively different to several other Pakistani platforms conducting conversations in urdu. Waheed is one of the better English speaking sports media professionals in Pakistan despite conducting his shows predominantly in urdu.
