Sohail Tanvir (Urdu: سہیل تنویر; born 12 December 1984) is a Pakistani former cricketer, who has gained considerable international repute for his unorthodox left arm bowling action and particularly for the success it has gained him in the Twenty20 format of the game.[2] He was a member of the Pakistan team that won the 2009 ICC World Twenty20. Tanvir was the first 'purple cap' winner in the inaugural edition of the Indian Premier League and his best figures were 6 for 14 playing for the Rajasthan Royals. This bowling record lasted for over a decade in the IPL.[3] His figures in the Caribbean Premier League for the Guyana Amazon Warriors against Barbados are some of the most impressive of all time (5 for 3 in the 2017 edition)[4] Other notable mentions in the Caribbean Premier League[5] include an 18 ball 50 playing for the St Lucia Zouks at the Daren Sammy Stadium including smashing three consecutive sixes against Kieron Pollard.[6] Tanvir continues to play in franchise leagues across the globe as one of the most prolific bowling all-rounders in world cricket[7] with economical bowling figures and an impressive strike rate. Sohail Tanvir will be representing the Multan Sultans[8] when the PSL resumes for the finals of the series in November 2020 after the team ended the league stage on top of the table.[9] He is currently enrolled in the USA Open draft[10] for the upcoming edition of the tournament running from 16 to 20 December 2020.[11] In a 2020 interview, Tanvir described his 2007 Test debut wicket of Rahul Dravid in Delhi as the 'ball of his life'[12] when the ball pitched outside leg stump and shattered 'the wall's off-stump in an unplayable manner.[13]

International career

Sohail Tanvir belongs to Rawalpindi, from Awan tribe. An allrounder, he is a hard-hitting left-handed batsman and an unorthodox left-arm medium-fast bowler who also bowls occasional left-arm orthodox spin. Was selected for Pakistan's squad for the inaugural World Twenty20 after Shoaib Akhtar was sent home. He made his Twenty20 debut in the tournament, and took six wickets in six matches, with best bowling figures of 3 for 31 in four overs against Australia. Though considered an allrounder, Tanvir did not get a chance to bat in the tournament until the final, where he made his first international runs, with a six off his first ball, aiding Pakistan back into the game.

After impressing in the ICC World Twenty20, he was selected to play in the ODI series against South Africa in October 2007. He was then selected for the tour of India, and took eight wickets in the ODI series. He also took part in the Test series that followed, making his debut in place of the injured Umar Gul. On debut at the Feroz Shah Kotla in Delhi, he took three wickets which included his first international Test cricket causality Sourav Ganguly and Rahul Dravid. In the Asia Cup, June 2008, Pakistan played their first game against Hong Kong at Karachi. In that match, Pakistan's top order struggled to get grips with Hong Kong bowlers before Sohail Tanvir set up a 100 run stand along with Fawad Alam for the 8th wicket. Sohail scored his maiden ODI 50 in that match. He scored 59 off just 55 balls which took Pakistan to a respectable score of 288. After that, in the match vs. Sri Lanka, Tanvir took his first 5 wickets haul. He ended at 5/48 in 10 overs. After the 2009 ICC World Twenty20

Triumph over adversity (2010)

Shortly after the World Twenty20, Tanvir was on a one-year break because of injuries. He missed the tour of New Zealand in November 2009, the controversial tour against Australia in January 2010. He also missed the chance to participate for Pakistan in the 2010 ICC World Twenty20 and the 2010 Asia Cup, and he missed the tour of England in August 2010. He recovered from injury in October 2010, and was selected to participate in the test series against South Africa under new captain Misbah-ul-Haq.[14] The doctors however advised rest for Sohail Tanvir to help him recuperate fully from the new injury.[15] He completely recovered from his knee injury by December and was selected for all three formats against New Zealand. He gave insights into his injury and stated at one point he couldn't even walk and that doctors thought he would really struggle to walk. However, he recovered really quickly after that as the surgery he had in Australia in January was a success.[16] At the last minute of the team departing for the New Zealand tour, Tanvir was replaced because the selectors thought he was not fully fit.[17] After missing the Twenty20 Internationals the selectors recalled Tanvir after he had proved his performance in domestic games coupled with poor performances from a depleted Pakistan bowling attack.[18]

Return and World Cup selection (2011)

Despite being back in the team for the two-test series and the final Twenty20 Tanvir wasn't selected and not having played an international match in thirteen-months he was named in Pakistan's 15-man World Cup Squad he finally returned to the national team in the first ODI against New Zealand after Pakistan elected to bat Tanvir scored six-runs as Pakistan were bowled out for 124, however Tanvir also took one-wicket it would turn out to be Pakistan's only wicket of the match as New Zealand won by nine-wickets.[19]

Tanvir was ruled out of World Cup 2011 due to failing to complete a full rehabilitation from surgery for a knee problem that had dogged him for two years.[20] His career after his recovery continues to impress and he has made an impact in franchise cricket in tournaments from Qatar[21] to the CPL and Canadian GT20 tournament.
