Top 7 active T20 cricketers in the World aged more than 35 

#5 Imran Tahir (39 years)

Imran Tahir is still a vital member of the South African team in limited overs cricket

At 39, Imran Tahir is still a certainty in limited overs cricket for South Africa, especially in T20 cricket. The wily wrist-spinner renowned for his unique celebration style where he often runs from the pitch down to the boundary boasts of an enviable record in T20 cricket.

He has picked 236 wickets in T20 cricket at an average of 21.77 runs per wicket and an acceptable economy of 7.2 runs per over.

Tahir is the first CSK player in our list and although he had a mediocre season with them picking 6 wickets in 6 games, he played a key role for them in their game against RCB, where we picked up AB De Villiers and Corey Anderson back to back and stall their progress in what could have otherwise been an unreachable total to chase.
