If they come and ask me something, then I feel it&#8217;s my duty to share my knowledge with them and I want to make a difference. The Lanka Premier League has provided a great platform for the local talent to showcase their skills. Players like Wanindu Hasaranga has gone on to become one of the most sought-after players in franchise leagues around the world,&#8221; said the leg-spinner, who has taken 424 wickets in 338 T20 matches.<\/p>\n<p>Tahir added that the youngsters need to learn how to be successful in T20 cricket, &#8220;The youngsters need to know how one can bowl really well in the T20 format by using pace, variations and different grips.&nbsp; We&#8217;ve got some really talented off-spinners and they bowl really well and we&#8217;ve got leg-spinners in our team as well. I am trying to help them as much as I can.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The South African also spoke about the importance of leg-spinners in a cricket team.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The art of leg-spin is a very exciting part of cricket. A leg-spinner can pick up two-three wickets in the middle and that&#8217;s very effective. Each team needs to have a good crop of leg-spinners as they are seen as the game changers. Even if you look at the top T20I bowlers in the ICC rankings, it&#8217;s dominated by leg-spinners. The top five in the list &#8211; Wanindu Hasaranga, Tabraiz Shamsi, Adam Zampa, Adil Rashid and Rashid Khan &#8211; are all leg-spinners. The game of cricket has changed over the years and it&#8217;s great to see leg-spinners performing well all over the world,&#8221; said Tahir.<\/p>\n<p>Dambulla Giants&#8217; leg-spinner Madushan Ravichandrakumar expressed that he is looking to learn a lot from Imran Tahir during the Lanka Premier League, &#8220;He is my role model. When I used to watch his matches, I used to eagerly wait for him to come on to bowl to learn from him. He has a lot of variations such as leg-spin, googly, flipper, top spin and his own kind of variations so I am trying to learn those from him. He opens his heart and he is always honest with his bowling and he is a great person to learn from. He&#8217;s a good mentor.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Colombo: South African leg-spinner Imran Tahir, who has taken 4 wickets in 4 matches for the Dambulla Giants in the ongoing season of the Lanka Premier League, expressed that he has enjoyed sharing his knowledge with the youngsters in the competition. &#8220;I get a lot of joy from sharing my knowledge with youngsters.
