Yusuf Pathan:
The hard hitting Baroda all-rounder cannot be entirely considered as someone who couldn’t make it at the international level. He suited the shorter format and it was quite visible in the 2008 IPL season where he scored 435 runs with four fifties at a strike-rate of 179. This earned him an ODI call-up for the tri-series in Bangladesh immediately after the culmination of the season. However, although success did not elude him completely, his form soon became patchy and his international career saw a downfall after featuring in the 2011 World Cup winning squad. In all, he has played 57 ODIs and 22 T20Is in career so far. His IPL career, at the other hand, hasn’t seen a major dip. He currently plays for the Kolkata Knight Riders and has been part of two title winning seasons. Ahead of the 2017 season, the 34 year old’s IPL stats read 2761 runs in 134 matches.
