The leg glance is generally a higher risk shot than most. That is, it can be made to be risky, if you're playing across the line. It's true that Tamim did incorporate this shot early on in his career, especially early in his innings with the new ball swinging back into him. But he had a big issue with looking to play it too often, frequently playing across the line and getting into trouble.

Generally, you're better of playing an on drive, and holding back the glance for when the ball is going down leg. Definitely an easy boundary.
