If Rajasthan Royals won the 2008 final, then it was the all-round performance of Yusuf Pathan that helped them do that. His 4-0-22-3 and 56 of 39 balls showed his class and ability to deal with the pressure efficiently.

Although he has not played any international cricket after 2012, he has continued to be an integral part of IPL. He was a part of Kolkata Knight Riders till 2017 before he shifted to Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2018, where he scored 260 runs in 9 innings he got.

He has been retained by SRH for 2019 season as well and it will be interesting to see whether he can repeat his heroics of 2008 IPL season again, where he had scored 435 runs and had taken 8 wickets in 16 games.
