Imran Tahir IPL bowling story: 82 wickets in 59 IPL innings, strike-rate 16.05 balls per scalp, economy 7.76 across eight seasons. The South African leg-spinner made each of his 1316 deliveries count, conceding only 1703 runs and turning games with 12 three-wicket hauls and a best of 4-for. From Delhi Capitals’ ranks in 2014-2016 to the Rising Pune Supergiant squad in 2017 and finally the Chennai Super Kings dynasty from 2018-2021, Tahir has been a constant threat. While his batting was limited—33 runs off 37 balls with five boundaries—his real value lay in his ability to break partnerships and defend totals. CSK fans will remember his trademark celebratory sprints every time the ball spun past the bat to crash into the stumps, a sight that captured the essence of Tahir’s impact in the Indian Premier League.
