Asuma slit hidan's throat and hidan survived only because of kakuzu's interference don't forget that and besides kakuzu had pretty much enough intel to stop the complete team by that time......

Asuma would died against Hidan in 2 seconds without Shikamaru interference to save him. Asuma decapitated Hidan  only because Shikamaru had two hours to  unravel Hidan's technique to asuma while  Kazuzu didn't want to help Hidan. Even with this Asuma was killed. Shikamaru without Konoha's reinforcements would be killed as well.

where was it shown that he knows about ino's ability?he wasn't even there when she fought in chunin exam? Whereas the databook seems to say otherwise.....Asuma is better than sasuke at that time.And intel gathering capacity of team asuma is better(evident from their intelligence score heck even asuma is better than sasuke in that area)Besides according to databook Asuma is pretty much enough to handle sasuke and with 3 more members he can practically overwhelm him..... And don't forget Naruto yamato and sai's intent was never to harm sasuke whereas he was ready to dive for the kill

Sasuke studied with ino during years in academy in the same class. Ino used his abilities to everyone see during chunnin exams. Yamanaka clan main jutsu is shitenshin no jutsu. Every Konoha citizen knows about Yamanaka's jutsu specialty.

It's simply ridiculous you say Sasuke didn't know about shitenshin no jutsu. Even Part 1 Sakura have intel and know how to deal against shitenshin no jutsu. Sasuke is so much fast for them. Sasuke still have Sharingan advantage who can easily predict their jutsus and movements. They never will capture him with slow jutsus like Kage Mane or Shitenshin no jutsu.

Deidara has better stats than Sasuke in databoook and we see how Sasuke defeated him. Sasuke at that time easily take himself against strong Rank S Criminals like Orochimaru, Deidara and Itachi and  easily overpowered new team  Yamato. Sasuke have much better jutsus than Asuma. Like Katons, Raiton, Kirin, kenjutsu and genjutsu hability

While Asuma has simply no manga panel time or feats because Hidan killed him in 2 seconds. Asuma is a joke compared to Sasuke.

In that fight against Team Yamato Sasuke didn't showed 50% of his skills like he showed against Deidara and Itachi. Sasuke didn't even needed to use his cursed seal.

Wrong. When Sasuke defeated Naruto. Kyuubi was ready to help Naruto with his power But Sasuke entered in Naruto's mind and overpowered Kyuubi and left naruto without options to fight against him. Naruto admited he was no match against Sasuke at that time

Sasuke easily defeated Sai moments before in Orochimaru's hideout with a Genjutsu who made Sai shitting in his pants.

Yamato was ready to kill Sasuke after he was stabbed. Sasuke responded with Kirin. Orochimaru and kabuto have to save them. Because even Orochimaru knows Team Yamato has no chances against Sasuke at that time.

Agreed but if you recall it requires too much prep and set up and no one here has a strong fire technique to do such a thing(unlike itachi).And even if he could before that he would be either dead or captured.

Are you crazy?

Sasuke prepared an instant Kirin without Katon against Team Yamato.

Sasuke have a very powerfull Katon: Gouruyka no jutsu who is his main Katon to prepare Kirin. With that Katon Sasuke prepared Kirin in a few minutes against Itachi.

Asuma is a Katon user too. Sasuke can easily take advantage with Asuma's Katons to prepare Kirin like he did with itachi's amaterasu.
