IPL 2016: 10 best batsmen of the tournament

#4 – Yusuf Pathan

Yusuf Pathan was only 14th in the highest run-getters list, but he makes this list for the sheer importance of his knocks. Yusuf was also able to find a new approach to his batting compared to his old style of going hard at it. There was a definite maturity about the 33-year-old's batting.

In 13 innings, Yusuf scored 361 runs at an outstanding average of 72.20 and a strike rate of 145.56. His batting average was second only to the orange cap holder, Virat Kohli. Two of his three fifties came in a winning cause, the last of which came in a must-win game in the league stages. Despite not starting the tournament well, Yusuf found form at the right time for his side to help them reach the playoffs.
