Champions Trophy 2017: 5 reasons why South Africa can win the trophy

#5 The presence of Imran Tahir

Imran Tahir ranks No. 2 on the list of ODI bowlers

The dry surfaces in England during the month of June call for an inclusion of a spinner and if the spinner is of Imran Tahir’s quality, the batsman can feel the pressure. His wrist spin can be very handy amidst pace attack of South Africa.

The leg-spinner is currently the No.2 ranked ODI bowler in the ICC rankings and can rip through the batting line-up on his day. The 38-year old will be playing the tournament just after an exceptional season with the ball in the IPL where he picked wickets in almost every game he played.
