Cricketer-turned-politician Navjot Singh Sidhu on Wednesday said he will attend the swearing-in-ceremony of Pakistan Prime Minister-in-waiting Imran Khan.

Khan will take oath as Pakistan's Prime Minister on August 11.

Calling Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief as 'a man of character', Sidhu said Imran Khan can be trusted.

"It is a great honour and I accept the invitation. Men of genius are admired, men of power are feared but men of character are trusted. Khan Sahab is a man of character. He can be trusted," Navjot told ANI.

Khan has also invited former Indian cricketers Sunil Gavaskar, along with actor Aamir Khan for his oath-taking ceremony.
