The Indian spinner came into the news in the very first week after the ‘Mankad’ controversy. Moreover his performances went unnoticed due to this controversy. He started decently against Rajasthan Royals with figures of 1/20.

But in the next two games, he couldn’t take any wickets. He is the skipper of his side and was expected to bowl in the tougher overs. But instead he bowled in the middle overs and finishes his quota before the end of 15th over. In the two games, he conceded 47 and 26 runs respectively.

9. Bhuvneshwar Kumar – Sunrisers Hyderabad

The form of Bhuvi is causing an increasing alarm in the cricketing fraternity. He is looking extremely rusty and isn’t bowling his yorkers perfectly and on a consistent basis.

Bhuvi is leaking runs at an alarming rate in the death overs and in the first games, he has performed at his worst. So far he has bowled 11 overs and has given 117 runs at an economy of nearly 11. The horrific fact is that he hasn’t picked even a single wicket.
