Watch: Imran Tahir helps Vandersay, Shamsi with valuable lessons on leg spin

After South Africa's clinical win over Sri Lanka, Tahir was seen imparting some valuable lessons to Vandersay on the art of spinning the ball.

South Africa inflicted a thumping nine wicket over Sri Lanka at the Riverside Ground in to register their second win in the ongoing  ICC World Cup. The Proteas ended a spree of losses in the tournament to give their fans something to cheer about in what has otherwise been a dismal campaign. The Proteas bowled out Sri Lanka for a paltry 204-run total courtesy an all-round bowling show by their seamers. While Rabada, Morris and Dwaine Pretorius were among the major wicket takers; ace leg spinner Imran Tahir produced another miserly spell giving away just 36 runs off his 10 overs. Tahir just dint have a good day with the ball on the green turf but also won many admirers off the field by helping out Sri Lankan leg  spinner Jeffrey Vandersay. After South Africa's clinical win, Tahir was seen imparting some valuable lessons to Vandersay on the art of spinning the ball.
