Pathan made his debut in first-class cricket in 2001/02. He is a powerful and aggressive right-handed batsman and a right-arm offbreak bowler. His stepbrother Irfan Pathan is also an Indian cricketer. Yusuf is capable of changing the course of a match single-handedly, be with his batting, bowling or his fielding. A hard-hitting batsman and a very useful off-spinner, Yusuf Pathan is tailor-made for the limited overs format. He made his Twenty20 international debut in the final against Pakistan. He opened the batting for India in the match, and scored 15 runs in the process. Yusuf had made his One-Day International debut for India against Pakistan at Dhaka on 10 June 2008. He became a regular feature of the national One-Day International team, but has yet to make his test debut. Yusuf is a clever bowler as well, and has done a very tidy job even when he has been called in to bowl with the fielding restrictions in force; he is not a great mover on the cricket field, but is acrobatic and a safe catcher.
