Imran Tahir has won many games for South Africa with the ball in the past. The 42-year-old was always regarded as one of the best limited-overs spinner for the Proteas. However, it seems after retirement Tahir groomed himself to become a batter as well. Tahir on Saturday put on a show with the bat and single-handedly snatched victory from India Maharajas in Legends League Cricket.
The spinner already was appreciated by fans for taking a brilliant catch to dismiss Naman Ojha. However, no one knew that this was just the appetizer and the woahh-worthy performance was yet to come from Tahir.
