Imran Tahir role revealed in bringing World XI players to Pakistan

LAHORE: Imran Tahir has a special feeling, coming back to the country where he grew up, played his cricket but changed allegiance after not getting the national colours.

But the wily spinner is happy that he has convinced some of the World XI players to tour Pakistan for a noble cause — to help revive international cricket in the country.

Tahir revealed that his feedback on security situation in Pakistan helped.

“Look all of the players asked me and being a local I told them very positive things because I have been coming here to meet my family and I have come to see them every year, ” Tahir said on the eve of a three-match series between Pakistan and World XI in Lahore.
