Ravishing cover drives, stunning flick shots, and demolishing hooks were all once granted sights when Murali Vijay assumed the crease as an opener in the IPL. The CSK batsman also holds credit for scoring two wonderful tons over his career in the T20 competition. However, cut through the years, and the stylish right-handed batsman is now reduced to the role of a backup option in the fiercely competitive league. While dips in form and injuries have played the spoilsport, the emergence of breathtaking Indian talents has made life tougher for the Chennai-based cricketer.

After being picked for 2 crores by CSK in the last auction, a few expected Vijay to win back his critics with a good show this season. As things turned out, the 35-year-old did not get many opportunities to prove his mettle. It'll be interesting to see how things pan out for him in the following auction.
