Wearing jersey number 13, he combines elegant stroke play with an aggressive mindset, giving Kuwait flexibility across various batting positions.

His consistent run-scoring and calm approach under pressure make him a mainstay in Kuwait’s batting unit. Off the field, Bilal contributes to batting clinics and has been a vocal ambassador for Kuwait Cricket’s grassroots development initiatives. With age on his side, Bilal Tahir is seen as a long-term batting pillar for the national team.
