IRFAN PATHAN’S wait to play in the 10th edition of IPL is over as Gujarat Lions have roped the former India all-rounder as replacement for injured all-rounder Dwayne Bravo.

He has scored 1137 runs and has picked 80-wickets in as many games. The Gujarat-lad has previously featured for Kings XI Punjab, Delhi Daredevils, Chennai Super Kings, Sunrisers Hyderabad and Rising Pune Supergiant.
