what an innings from yusuf pathan today against kiwis in the 4th odi. with his bowling bagging three crucial wickets and showing a magical performance and taking india to victory from struggle is awesome. scoring 123* including 7four and 7six is fantastic and he played wisely at crucial times without losing wickets. an other all rounder is getting ready for india....

What a match it was!!! Fantastic innings from Yousuf Pathan, the way he played made me proud that I support Indian cricket team. There was very little hope left when New Zealand made 315-7, and Indian top order did not contributed much. Thanks to Yousuf and Parthiv Patel for their effort and entertain us with such a match winning innings.

Yousuf Patan once again proved his ability to bat well in pressure situations.
He batteds superbly.
His sixes were amazing.
He is a powerful hitter of the ball,he proved it again.
Congratulations for him on his first century

What a knock from Yusuf Pathan.I think he is one of the best all-rounders in the world.He can change the result at any time.About yeaterday's inning's , Yusuf started his innings slowly with no risky shots at all.But at the the time when India required the run-rate he changed the gear of his batting and brought India to the victory.Also it is ti be mentioned that Rohit Sharma and Sourabh Tiwary gave him a good support too.

Yusuf Pathan played his best innings in ODI. He clarified that it was his career turning match. What an innings. Unbeaten 123 runs with 3 wickets. His innings came when Indian team urgently needed a one like this only. He got the support of Saurabh Tiwary and Suresh Raina too. Earlier, Franklin was going to the hero of the match hitting unbeaten 98 runs helping his side to pile up 315 runs. For the first time Kiwis got a run to defend with but Pathan's innings killed their hopes. Seven sixes and as many fours in his innings Pathan also built his innings first then went for the kill.

Yeah, brilliant innings especially when India was like 188-5. But Yousaf has a long way to go still. His ability to score big against competent attacks will prove him a good all-rounder in future and this innings was a step forward in that direction so i give him 9.5/10 for that innings.
