MS Dhoni Reacted On The Unique Style Of CSK Leg Spinner Imran Tahir’s Celebration On Taking A Wicket

Chennai Super Kings South African leg spinner Imran Tahir has a unique way of celebrating whenever he takes a wicket. Imran Tahir sprints to one end of the ground, with his arms spread wide open, sometimes thumping his chest and his visage breaking into a lion’s roar.

Yesterday’s match against Delhi Capitals, the South African Spinner once again shined for his team CSK as he took 4 wickets and gave only 12 runs in 3.2 overs. He sent these DC batsmen back to pavilion- Rishabh pant (5), Axar Patel (9), Sherfane Rutherford (2) and Amit Mishra.

Imran Tahir is the leading wicket taker for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) this season with 21 wickets from 13 matches. He is also second the list of highest wicket takers this season only Delhi pacer Kagiso Rabada (25), who missed Wednesday night’s game due to injury.

During the presentation, while talking about the celebration style of Imran Tahir, CSK skipper MS Dhoni told Harsha Bhogle that he and Watson don’t run after him to congratulate.

This is so because he runs towards the different end so they both prefer to wait for him as the good part is that he comes back to the original point. When he comes back, they congratulate him.

This is what Dhoni said in the video:

“It’s great fun to watch Tahir celebrate. But we have made it very clear that me and Watson we are never coming to him once he gets a wicket, because more often he runs to the other side,” MS Dhoni told Harsha Bhogle during the match presentation ceremony. “For me and Watson it’s a bit difficult when you are not 100% fit. Why to go over there and congratulate. The good thing is he finishes his lap and comes back to the same place. So that’s the time we say, ‘yeah, very well done well bowled’ and we go back to our fielding positions,” Dhoni said jokingly.

CSK defeated DC by 80 runs in the yesterday’s match as batting first, the former scored 179/4 in the allotted 20 overs but DC shattered even before reaching the three figure mark and lost the match by a huge margin of 80 runs.
