Yusuf Pathan, after Sehwag, is perhaps the most destructive batsman India ever produced..India was never known to produce such pinch-hitters, the way South Africa or Australia did. Now we have a powerhouse in the form of Yusuf. Best thing about him is the effortless way in which he executes his shots. The way he comes forward and lazily swings his bat to despatch the ball outside the stadium is stunning to watch..
He is the real find of IPL..rest like Manish Pandey, Saurabh Tiwari are all those with flashes of brilliance..
Yusuf Pathan is the kind of person who does not know the meaning of form. It is not necessary that he plays well just becoz he scored well in one match as opposed to other players who have a good run (good form) and then may hit a bad patch (out of form). Yusuf is strong, and he swings, and if he connects with the ball, then God save the ball !
They have many similarities this year, They replaced a Indian local player by a overseas W/K batsman who's form is awful from the beginning and can't replaced by a good Overseas players like B.Lee and S.Marsh.
Mahela is a very close friend to Sanga so bench Mahela for B.lee / S.Marsh is not possible now.
IMO, Both Sanga & Mahela should be benched to get back S.Marsh and B.Lee in to the team, since u can't bench your leading run scorer or you best seamer, but KXIP can't becn Sanga since he is the captain, worst things are going for KXIP.

Yuvraj is a big liability for KXIP. Look at the way he gets out in every match - highly irresponsible...may be he is doing this intentionally as he has been deprived of captaincy.

Yes Mr. Babu,tell us why cant other players play like him even in IPL.Which batsmen hits more sixes then fours in his innins...its only Yousuf Patan...you cannot find another sachin in India same way you cannot find another Yousuf in India,bravo yousuf keep up the good work and keep hitting those huge sixes....
When Yousuf Bats, i see sir kapil batting style same as him. They way yousuf stands and they way he hits sixes, i must say purely Kapil style batting...

he is good for only galli cricket (oops !! sorry 20-20 / IPL)...not for real cricket (50 ovrs / test matches)...
I think it makes no sense for any team to bring spinners when he is batting, just bring on fast bowlers with short deliveries. otherwise god help the opposition
