Indian Premier League For Cricket

Irfan Pathan was hailed as the all-rounder come to replace Kapil Dev. He has both the batting and the bowling skills to be an all rounder. But too much pressure on his young shoulders to both open the batting and bowling innings lead to his steady loss of pace in bowling and eventually he started failing both with the bat and bowl.

He was dropped from the national side and spent a year playing domestic cricket and improving his bowling action. He has now found his way back into the Indian national side and is a much better player for the time spent out of the side. Irfan and brother Yousuf contributed handsomely to India’s triumph in the twenty20 world cup. He will be a valuable asset to the Kings XI punjab team and will be bowling alongside Brett Lee of Australia.
