Yusuf Pathan vs Mumbai Indians in 2010
Yusuf Pathan’s monstrous innings of 100 in just 37 balls against Mumbai Indians in 2010 went in vain after Rajasthan Royals were given a target of 213. Royals was off to a disastrous start after losing 4 wickets for just 66 runs in the 10th over. It was then the big man (Pathan) who smashed every bowler out of the park.
He first took 21 balls to reach his fifty and accelerate his innings thereafter by hitting the next 50 runs in just 16 deliveries. Just after he reached his century, he was run-out when the score was 173 in 17 overs. His teammates couldn’t finish things off as Rajasthan lost the game by mere 4 runs. This match was one of the best examples of why cricket is an unpredictable game.
