Very endearing to see him at a loss for words. And good on him to brush off English and speak in Hindi rather than stumbling along. Needs to be in the playing 11 in ODIs. Hope to see him soon in Indian colours on the field. :isalute:

Outstanding player. He is one of those very hard working players with 100% commitment. I hope he becomes a good part of team India.
definitely...:two_thumbs_up:
Just a slogger & nothing else' date= good for T20's
The way he started today in the finale disproves ↑ he is just not a slogger but a sensible batsman.
Irfan is genuine allrounder' date= he just needs a proper definition of his role in the team. He is indispensable in the ODI and T20 teams. He is still a little too inconsistent in the Tests, but watching him play, I can tell he is tremendously talented.
game was in balance and he comes and changes the game.
Today the game was not only balanced but it was tilted towards CSK...he stood firm at the beginning and then single-handedly changed the game the other way...
not only will yusuf pathan be able to prove himself by batting & bowling well' date= but he will also replace harbhajan singh in the test squad as the off-spinner
Now, YKP emerges as a proven and branded all-rounder...remember this final match.
He has already proven himself by taking several MoM...also today's innings both with the bat and ball has affirmed a lot about his substance and the way of cricket! just for remembrance...

well played Yusuf' date=' would be interesting if he translate this into the other forms of cricket. Ok, maybe I am getting a little ahead of myself but the fact that he strikes it clean, he may even be a success at the Test level :tounge_smile:[/quote']
The base was set by Yusuf's ballistic, yet fortuitous, fifty. Murali had no answers against him in the next over, though, when he was blasted for two successive sixes over wide long-on. Yusuf Pathan's strikes helped Rajasthan rein in Chennai at the start. No other bowler managed more than two wickets. Yusuf Pathan's nerves were evident at the start of his innings with Rajasthan precariously placed at 42 for 3. He tried to break free but several of his early attempts where mis-hits.
He has really created excitement amongst the people from different walks of life. He has become a ray of hope for us, let him play ODIs and show whats real hidden in him. :two_thumbs_up::two_thumbs_up::two_thumbs_up:

Terrific knock and excellent bowling. The best player for Rajastan in the finals. He looked calm, collected his thoughts and picked his moments. Luck favoured him to when Raina dropped him. Luck favours the brave and he certainly deserved that bit of luck. Although he struggled against Murali at the start he did end up scoring a brisk fifty without throwing it all away just because he wasn't striking the ball early on. It takes a lot of composure to do that.
