All Round View is an autobiography written by Imran Khan, the former cricketer of the Pakistan team and one of cricket's greatest all-rounders. The book provides insights into Imran Khan's life and career, both in cricket and politics.

The book delves into Imran Khan's cricketing journey, from his early days as a promising young cricketer in Pakistan to becoming one of the world's most renowned fast bowlers. He describes his upbringing in Lahore, his college years at Oxford (where he captained the University team), his time at Worcester, and finally his time at Sussex, which culminated in his captaincy of Pakistan. He discusses his experiences as the captain of the Pakistan national cricket team and his leadership style. A self-portrait of a man who has spent fifteen years at the top begins to take shape.

All Round View is particularly notable for covering Pakistan's historic victory in the 1992 Cricket World Cup. Imran Khan led the Pakistani team to its first-ever World Cup win, and he provides an in-depth account of the tournament, the challenges faced, and the emotions surrounding this momentous achievement.

Imran Khan's transition from a cricketing legend to a politician is a central theme of the book. He talks about his motivations for entering politics and his efforts to establish the political party, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI). The book offers his views on governance, democracy, and his vision for Pakistan.

All Round View also offers glimpses into Imran Khan's personal life, including his relationships, family, and philanthropic work, including the Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital & Research Centre and Namal University.
