Imran Tahir

Chennai Super Kings acquired the services of Mohammad Imran Tahir for Rs.1 crore in the auctions. The leg-spinner has been pretty effective in the shortest format of the game, making crucial breakthroughs for his teams.

Tahir has represented Delhi Daredevils and Rising Pune Supergiants in the previous editions of the IPL. He has played 32 IPL games and has picked up 47 wickets at an average of 21.10 and an economy of 8.31, with best figures of 4/28.

The Lahore-born cricketer has held the top bowling rank in both ODI and T20 formats. He was named the International Cricketer of the Year for South Africa in 2013 and holds the record for the most number of wickets taken by a leg-spinner for the country.

With the impact that leg-spinners are creating in T20s, Tahir is surely a player to watch out for in the upcoming season of the IPL.
