The world-class leg-spinner had no hesitation in touring Pakistan and had mentioned that he is a frequent visitor to the country where he still has an old house.

The main story:

After the final T20 match between the two teams was put to rest, Imran Tahir took out time to give some bowling tips to young Pakistani bowler Shadab Khan. Tahir showed the 18-year-old how to bowl a particular delivery and Shadab was all ears to him.

Sami Ul Hasan, ICC’s Head of Media and Communications, shared the video on popular social media platform, Twitter. He paired the tweet with the caption “Imran Tahir sharing knowledge and experience with Shadab Khan.”
