Imran Tahir says son motivates him to continue at 47

Imran Tahir revealed his young son is the biggest motivation behind his decision to continue playing at 47. The veteran leg-spinner claimed a career-best 5 for 17 to become the oldest bowler to take a five-wicket haul in T20 history.

Tahir said family responsibilities drive his determination to remain competitive at the highest level. He emphasised that his son's future depends on his continued professional success. The five-wicket haul came during a domestic T20 match where he maintained control throughout his spell.

Tahir has shown no signs of reducing his workload despite his age. He said the achievement proves age is not a barrier when motivation remains strong. His performance has sparked discussions about his potential return to international cricket.
