IPL 2018 auction: 5 biggest steals

Ente

#5 - Imran Tahir (Chennai Super Kings): INR 1 crore

3rd ODI: South Africa v Australia

Imran Tahir had one hell of a 2017, being in outstanding form and performing at a world-class level, as evident by his ranking on the ICC ODI Rankings, where he is at the top. He has a vast arsenal of leg breaks, from googlies, to sliders, which tend to trick batsmen and make them fumble, a major source of Tahir's success.

Tahir is also scarily consistent, always getting wickets at a low economy rate, part of the reason he plays for South Africa in the first place.

There is no doubt in the world that Imran Tahir is one of, if not the best leg-spinning bowler in the world when it comes to limited-overs cricket, which makes him a phenomenal buy for just 1 crore rupees.
