	Irfan Pathan at Cricket Information
		Irfan Pathan is being considered by many as the successor to Kapil Dev.
		Pathan came from a poor family and cricket provided his escape route.
		What made Pathan stand out was not just his swinging ability, but his aggression and exuberance, whilst keeping a mature head on his shoulders.

	Stupid move to promote Pathan: Wadekar - News - ICC Champions Trophy,2006 - Cricket (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Pathan has even opened the Indian batting in Tests and one-dayers (once against South Africa at Kolkata last year and was out for a duck), as Wadekar points out, but the germination of the idea to send him higher in the order started out as a sensational success.
		Pathan, who is averaging around 30 in the number three position after 14 innings, has to his credit scores of 83, 35, 37 and 65 in the first four matches that he had batted at this important position which might still be in the Indian team management's memory.
		Pathan's promotion at Ahmedabad on Thursday on a wicket where the ball was doing a bit, lends credence to the argument that the youngster's batting prowess has been exaggerated a bit, especially in bowler-helpful conditions.

	Pathan - LoveToKnow 1911
		The Pathans of the Indian borderland inhabit the mountainous country on the Punjab frontier, stretching northwards from a line drawn roughly across the southern border of the Dera Ismail Khan district.
		Pathans enlist largely in the native army of India; and since the frontier risings of 1897 they have been formed with increasing frequency into class-regiments and regiments of native militia.
		The greater part of the Pathan country was placed under British political control by the Durand agreement made with the Amir of Afghanistan in 1893.

	The Hindu : Sport : Pathan steals the thunder
		Pathan had him squaring up on a couple of occasions, but the southpaw handled the early phase impressively and settled down to add 56 for the sixth wicket with Ashraful.
		He drove Pathan to the fence in the cover-point region, cover-drove Ganguly for a boundary, pulled Kumble, who was introduced in the 21st over, for four runs, before being dismissed caught behind to Pathan in the bowler's second spell when he followed a rising delivery, which was leaving the bat.
		Pathan was in line for a hat-trick again, when he had Mushfiqur Rahman leg-before with his very next delivery.

	Irfan Pathan
		Pathan had Salman Butt caught at first slip by Rahul Dravid with a sharp outswinger, trapped captain Younis Khan LBW with a sharp inswinger and bowled Mohammad Yousuf with another big inswinger to leave Pakistan reeling on nought for three.
		Pathan was the inaugural winner of the ICC Emerging Player of the year award in 2004, and is being groomed as the spearhead of the Indian attack for years to come, as well as a potential captain.
		Pathan's 36 ODI wickets was more than double the tally of any of his colleagues in the Emerging Player of the Year category, with Australia's Michael Clarke (16 wickets) the next highest wicket-taker in limited-over matches during the year.

	Pathan to go back and concentrate on domestic cricket- News-India's tour of South Africa, 2006 - Cricket - Indiatimes (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Pathan has picked 91 Test wickets from 25 matches at an average of 30.79 and is only the second Indian bowler to pick up a hat-trick but his recent slide has been too dramatic to be ignored any longer.
		Pathan's problems became apparent when he was slammed for 74 runs in his 11 overs by an average local side, Kwazulu-Natal XI, over the weekend.
		The sending back of Pathan midway through the tour is bound to put other non-performers on notice because the message is loud and clear -- there would be no place for those consistently failing to live to their promise.

	Pathan has lacklustre outing
		Pathan's figures of 2 for 108 from 22 overs in the first innings, including 14 no-balls, tells the real story.
		Pathan may have tried his best, but figures are what really count in the end.
		Pathan started with a wicket in his third over -- that of left-hander Shivakant Shukla, caught in the slips, but other than that he hardly caused any impression in the morning session, when he returned figures of 41 for 1 in 10 overs in UP's total of 75 for 4 in 25 overs.

	Viewing Notes \| The Pathans
		The Disappearing World film crew did not have permission to film any Pathan women past puberty for their documentary, and this is a distinct difference from all other documentaries we have viewed this semester which have many shots of women participating in daily life activities, or conversing with the researcher.
		Pathan life is structured around and through their practice of Islam and their adherence to what is called Pukhtunwali, the Pathan code of life.
		The much larger jirga concerning the problem of Pathan refugees from Afghanistan flooding the Pathan villages in the tribal area of Pakistan involved the upper echelon of Pathan political society, as well as representatives from the particular villages that were being over-run and a representative from the Pakistani government.

		This history of the British relationship with the Pathans is the history of a slow supplanting of the Forward Policy by the less ambitious Close Border Policy.

		In 2004 pathan was named the emerging player of the year at the icc awards and accepting this awars pathan paid tribute to his family members, friends and coaches.
		I think it’s wrong to compare him to kapil dev or wasim akram they were in their own league and pathan is in his own league, pathan will continue to do good job in taking wickets and he will son make a 1 hundred in odi and tests.
		Pathan and dhoni are the future of indian cricket.
