Former Indian cricketer Zaheer Khan is one of the most popular cricketing faces in the country. He has been a stalwart of the game and has a thorough understanding of every aspect of the sport. Over the years, Zaheer has found himself donning several roles in the cricketing world. He started off as a pace bowler, soon became the Indian bowling spearhead, and then transformed into a mentor for the younger lot.
Post his retirement, Zaheer Khan led the Delhi Daredevils in the Indian Premier League (IPL) as well and also served as a mentor for the players in the DD camp. Now, Zaheer Khan is all set to start afresh in a new role. Reportedly, the former cricketer has been signed by Cricbuzz, one of the leading digital platforms of India.

Zaheer Khan expressed his happiness over the new opportunity.
“IPL has been an integral part of my life for the last 10 years and being on the other side talking about cricket and the players I’ve been associated with, is going to be exciting. I am looking forward to this association with Cricbuzz and excited with the plan to make the show informative and entertaining,” Zaheer Khan quoted.
