Shaun PollockGUEST
Um, you know, Malcolm would be turning in his grave about the, the surfaces that they're producing.
Shaun PollockGUEST
You know, it's, it's Keshav Maharaj and, uh, Imran Tahir were at, at the helm for Natal for many, many years over the last five to 10 years, so, uh, it's not that bowler-friendly one anymore.
Shaun PollockGUEST
It's not the lawn.
Damien FlemingHOST
And, and going back to your first test there, what was it, November '95 against the Poms up at Centurion, how was that going into that? Do you, can you recollect how you're feeling-
AjitHOST
In this case, it's a similar one.
SPGUEST
One of the other things I just wanted to mention quickly on the CPL is Imran Tahir.
SPGUEST
He was joint highest wicket taker this year.
SPGUEST
Now, this guy is about what, 47, 48 years old? Exactly, yes.
Bashar SaeedHOST
Yeah, but he was-
Nadir SyedHOST
The highest wicket-taker of the CPL was Imran Tahir.
Nadir SyedHOST
He is 47 years old, and he said that he's keen on playing next year at 48.
Bashar SaeedHOST
Is he actually 47?
Bashar SaeedHOST
And, like, player of the final, I respect that as well for Sufyaan Mukim getting, uh, player of the final, but player of the tournament means something else completely entirely.
Bashar SaeedHOST
It just means you were consistent throughout a, a series of games.
Bashar SaeedHOST
You can't just discount that saying that 47-year-old, um, [tongue click] uh, what's his name, um, Imran Tahir was, had, had the most wickets of this, this tournament, it's discounted.
Bashar SaeedHOST
Did you see his wickets? They were absolutely insane.
AjitHOST
Yeah.
AjitHOST
This is a team captain by Imran Tahir.
AjitHOST
One of the oldest ever to take a 5-4 in a T20s.
AjitHOST
Amazing guy.
AjitHOST
At the same time, the women's WCPL also finished.
AjitHOST
They finished yesterday.
LeaGUEST
Let me just cut in because you said, yeah, Imran Tahir is the oldest bowler to take a FIFA in the CPL.
LeaGUEST
And he is playing for the Guyana Warriors.
Tabraiz ShamsiGUEST
But for me, it's never been like that.
Tabraiz ShamsiGUEST
And I think I've got to give a lot of credit to Imi as well, Imran Tahir, because he was obviously...
Sias du PlessisHOST
He was the
Tabraiz ShamsiGUEST
guy.
Bharat SundaresanHOST
[laughs]
Tom MorrisHOST
Uh, the other point I wanna make here before we move on, I, I just, I just love that Imran Tahir is still playing, uh, franchise-
Bharat SundaresanHOST
[laughs]
Tom MorrisHOST
... cricket around the world.
Bharat SundaresanHOST
... he's still, still celebrating the same way, bowling googlies where West Indian batters are shouldering arms to.
Bharat SundaresanHOST
I don't know whether you saw that dismissal It's quite, uh, quite something.
Bharat SundaresanHOST
A- and yeah, I mean, I got to interview Imran Tahir maybe 10, 10 years ago or so.
Bharat SundaresanHOST
One of the most fascinating characters in, in world cricket, and, uh, the story that stood out for me was him, h- him in his celebrations.
Ed HawkinsHOST
Do we play player performances and two wickets or more? I suspect so.
Ed HawkinsHOST
Imran Tahir statistically on the latter should be a little bit more than evens.
Ed HawkinsHOST
You probably might get six to four.
Ed HawkinsHOST
Even money on Flutter.
Paul KrishnamurtyPANELIST
It's incredible.
Paul KrishnamurtyPANELIST
He's 5-1 with Boyle Sports top bowler, 9-2 general.
Paul KrishnamurtyPANELIST
That's to be a wrong price and on the same token for Guyana ball sports are 4-1 about him and Tahir top bowler I mean that's just got to be completely wrong I generally agree he's generally 11-4 so I agree it's probably better to do two or more wickets but his value and just one more I've always liked Mahidi Hassan Miraz as a potential man of the match player you know dual purpose player started the tournament well should like conditions
Ed HawkinsHOST
yeah Good shout.
Bharat SundaresanHOST
[laughs]
Tom MorrisHOST
Uh, the other point I wanna make here before we move on, I, I just, I just love that Imran Tahir is still playing, uh, franchise-
Bharat SundaresanHOST

Tom MorrisHOST
... cricket around the world.
Bharat SundaresanHOST
I don't know whether you saw that dismissal.
Bharat SundaresanHOST
It's quite, uh, quite something.
Bharat SundaresanHOST
A- and yeah, I mean, I got to interview Imran Tahir maybe 10, 10 years ago or so.
Bharat SundaresanHOST
One of the most fascinating characters in, in world cricket.
Nadir SyedHOST
I just think he lost a lot of aura points and just a lot of, uh, goodwill within this, uh, setup, players-wise.
Bashar SaeedHOST
Bro, Babar in '21 had so much aura that post that '21 T20 World Cup, he pushed out Imran Tahir and Shoaib Malik and Mohammad Hafeez.
Bashar SaeedHOST
And these are big players to push out.
Nadir SyedHOST
And called M- and called, um, Mohammad Nawaz my match winner, and he played another seven years.
