IPL 2017: Five Most Expensive Players Kolkata Knight Riders' History! 1

Yusuf Pathan – 9.7 Crores:

Yusuf Pathan may have found it difficult to cement his place in the national team. But, his stocks in the domestic cricket and IPL are still the red hot. The hard-hitting all-rounder has rose to fame in his debut season with Rajasthan Royals which earned him a place in the 2007 World T20 team. In the next season, Pathan was bought by KKR for a princely sum of 9.7 crores after Royal put him in the auction pool. He has been KKR mainstay ever since and played several match-winning knocks in big matches. He has kept improving his game and has been in-form in the past couple of seasons aggregating 300 plus 2015 and 2016. So far he has featured in 134 matches and has scored 2761 runs with 12 fifties and a century to his tally.
