Imran Tahir, despite being a late starter in the South African cricket team, was quick to rise through the ranks and make a name for himself in the international scene, especially in the shortest format of the game.

Known for his expressive celebrations, Imran’s bowling during his time with the South African team has been one of the main focal points of the preparations of their own and the opposition batsmen’s team prior to any game.

The Pakistan-born Protean spinner, Tahir, was a part of 35 games for South Africa in total and the team went on to win 19 games in total out of those bringing the team’s win to loss ratio to 1.266, showing the level of the impact his presence has had on the team.

Tahir, currently aged 41 years, has a lot of experience on his hands, 38 games in total where he has taken 63 wickets and will be an integral part of his team’s campaign in the upcoming T20 World Cup if he is able to carry himself through till this tournament.
