4 well-known batsmen who were out for a duck on their IPL debut

#2 Ajinkya Rahane

Ajinkya Rahane is one of the best Indian openers in the IPL at the moment. His temparament is a delight to watch when he is at the crease. He is a kind of player who relies more on timing than power.

In 2008, a 19 year-old Ajinkya Rahane turned up for the Mumbai Indians on his IPL debut against the Deccan Chargers and unfortunately failed to make his debut count. He miscued one to Pragyan Ojha off Sanjay Bangar's bowling scoring a 7-ball duck.

Rahane didn't get adequate opportunities for the Mumbai Indians but has seen himself blossom at the Rajasthan franchise. In his IPL career, he has scored 3427 runs from 126 matches at an average of 33.
