3. Yusuf Pathan’s ‘Jack the Ripper’ moment:

The underperforming top order of the Kolkata Knight Riders has seen the likes of Yusuf Pathan, Suryakumar Yadav and Shakib-Al-Hasan a chance. Among these players, Yusuf Pathan has been the standout performer. Of course there are those who suggest that the 33-year old is past his peak and of course, there are other calling for his exclusion. Yet, he finds a way to keep going.

The older of the Pathan brothers has been in a splendid form of late. Especially against the Rising Pune Supergiants, Yusuf slammed the ball to all parts of the Eden Gardens. With rain playing a major part in proceedings, Pathan ensured that the target off a paltry 66 was reached with 4 overs to play. He had slammed 37 off just 18 deliveries including 4 boundaries and 3 sixes. A Kodak moment, check. A smash and grab, maybe. A ‘Jack the Ripper’ moment, definitely.
