Who is Ahsan Tahir?

After checking a few Pakistani websites on Google, we have found out that the person who could not hold onto his laughter is a Pakistan Super League franchise owner. The name of the person is Ahsan Tahir and he owns the Multan Sultans. He is the Group CEO of Walee Group, which bought the Multan Sultans franchise for a record Rs. 245 crore. He also happens to be a self-proclaimed cricket enthusiast. 

He recently announced rebranding the Pakistan Super League franchise Multan Sultans by changing the city name to Rawalpindi following the star-studded auction here at the Expo Centre. The announcement came after Walee Technologies acquired the ownership rights of the franchise. All these things show that he is very possessive about the PSL franchise.
