- Yusuf Pathan (Kolkata Knight Riders; 15):
The hard-hitting Vadodara lad was once a big element of the Indian national team but has slowly faded away from the international circuit. He is a fierce hitter who can demolish even the best bowlers in the league.
He had a superb career with the Rajasthan Royals before moving on to the Eden Garden franchise where he has been able to cement a place as a finisher for the team. He is also handy with the ball and is a quality addition to any squad.
He has won 14 man of the match awards in his time in the IPL and has scored 9 half-centuries and a century over the 9 seasons.
