#2 Yusuf Pathan
Yusuf Pathan started his IPL journey with the Rajasthan Royals and played a huge role in making them the first title winners in 2008. He was, in fact, the man-of-the-match in the final. Pathan has won 2 more IPL titles with Kolkata Knight Riders. Be it bowling or batting, Yusuf Pathan has always managed to impact the game in favor of his side. He stands at No. 3 along with Rohit Sharma when it comes to most Man-of-the-match awards won in IPL history. He has won 16 MOM awards so far, only behind AB de Villiers and Chris Gayle. His 37-ball century against Mumbai Indians in 2010 is the 2nd fastest century in IPL.
Like Piyush Chawla, Yusuf Pathan was also part of both the World Cup winning India squads. And like him, he also doesn't have a lot of individual records going in his favor. He is now 36+ years of age and last represented India in March of 2012. Another IPL star who couldn't repeat his IPL success on the international stage.
