Mohammad Imran Tahir (born 27 March 1979 in Lahore, Punjab) is an Pakistani cricketer who currently plays for Hampshire. He is a leg-spin bowler and bats right-handed. As well as his first-class career in Pakistan Tahir has had short spells with Yorkshire and Middlesex in county cricket and Titans in South Africa. He has represented Pakistan Under-19s and Pakistan A but has failed to win full international honours.

Tahir is married to a South African and there has been speculation that he will be included in the South African squad when he qualifies after meeting residency requirements in early-2009.
