5 oldest players in IPL 2018

#1 Imran Tahir - 39 Years

Imran Tahir still struggling to cement his place in CSK XI

At 39 years, Imran Tahir of Chennai Super Kings is the oldest player featuring in IPL 2018. He was the 5th leading wicket-taker in IPL 2017 for Rising Pune Supergiants with 18 wickets from 12 games.

The South African, known for his wily googlies and wild celebrations, hasn't been at his best in IPL 2018. With just 6 wickets to his name from 6 matches, at an economy of 9.09, Tahir hasn't been able to cement a place for him in CSK.

With CSK's average bowling performance and the impact of leg-spinners in this year's IPL, MS Dhoni will be hoping that the 39-year-old South African can get rid of his lean patch and turn the tide for CSK in their quest for the coveted 3rd IPL title.
