Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan on Thursday hit out at former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and termed his "homecoming" rally to Lahore as "Corruption Bachao" rally.

"My advice to NS (Nawaz Sharif) on his Corruption Bachao rally: You can blame the umpires, the pitch, the weather, some of your players.. but in the end you can't avoid the sinking feeling that the game is over and you have lost," the PTI chief said in a tweet.

"... And you will also realise there is a downward trend in the number of people listening to your excuses of poor umpiring," Khan said in another tweet.

Sharif, after his disqualification by the Supreme Court on July 28 in the Panama Papers case, is heading home to Lahore in a cavalcade via the Grand Trunk Road.
