Think Tahir is proof that bullying tailenders with your one decent weapon (a well disguised googly) will only get you so far.

Be interesting if anyone CBA to work it out what percentage of his FC wickets are from numbers 8-11.
Yeah, bowling against English county batsman is always going to help.

Having said that he did pretty much single-handedly keep Hampshire up in 2008, was only a short period but surley he cannot have been this bad then?

Was so pleased for him when he made his debut, his enthusiasm when he played for Hampshire was kind of endearing but it has all been horribly downhill since then.

Always love reading xuhaib's posts in hindsight. Whether he's right or wrong he sticks his neck out and gives a reason for his opinions.

Great poster, and spot on with Tahir it seems. Forgot to mention he's a **** though.

He's been a bit funny with his opinion on Tahir though:

I mean he obviously has every right to change his mind but equally I don't think we should be giving him too much credit for something he went back on entirely.

PEWS cheeky bastard.

yeah got sucked in by the hype tbh thought he must have genuinley improved out of sight if both SA and England were gunning for him.His WC 11 showing may also have helped.

Haha I only remembered you making that post because I replied to it saying I still thought Kaneria was a better bowler than Tahir anyway. I always remember making that post when I watch Tahir and I ponder over whether I still stand by it. His gross inconsistency has made me backflip a couple of times as well.

Not sure England were ever particularly interested were we?
