When Imran Tahir helped South Africa save a test with a funny time-wasting strategy

1. It’s very different South Africa The idea with test cricketer Imran Tahir has its own tryst. Historically, unless they find Shane Warne or Anil Kumble, the team will not use wristbands in a three-pronged offense at the same time.

Tahir’s testing career therefore proceeded as expected. Since the batsman had enough time to see his fool from the broken leg and reduce the risk, his 57 scalps averaged 40.24 points while scoring 3.5 times per game.

The last test of the restrictive giant was in 2015. But a year before that, he found a way to leave his mark on testing. This is also his auxiliary skill. Towards the end of the second test of the two-game series in Sri Lanka, Tahir scored 21 goals to ensure a tie, which allowed South Africa to win the series 1-0.

But his efforts with bats are not remembered by people because of their self-restraint nature. What is memorable is that the bowler indulges in funny time-wasting antics at the crease.

Pain or acting?When Imran Tahir saved a test with a bat

Whether Imran Tahir pretended to be injured and suffering in this incident can only be answered by himself. But from the outside, it felt very interesting when he started cramping after defending the last ball on the penultimate ball of the 5th day.

With South Africa leading with 139 points in the first game and fighting for survival at the last minute, Tahir died for 21 deliveries. But just before successfully completing the task, he seemed to be obsessed with some time-wasting strategies. After the Sri Lankan team watched Dilruwan Perara’s pass defense in frustration, he fell to the ground in pain.

Tahir immediately lay on the turf, and the commentator began to talk about this moment and found that although the batter easily defended the previous ball, it was fun to cramp and start kicking the ball in redundant ways.

When the camera rolled over the other South African players sitting in the pavilion, one of them couldn’t help but laugh when seeing the funny side of the matter.
