The bad-boy of New Zealand cricket, Jesse Ryder played in four editions of the IPL from 2009 to 2013, missing the 2010 edition due to a groin injury.

Ryder scored only 56 runs in his debut season from 5 matches and moved to Pune Warriors for two seasons from 2011.

His performances certainly improved as he was one of the better players in a side that struggled to make an impact during their short tenure in the IPL.

Disciplinary and fitness issues have forever played a part in Ryder's stop-start cricket journey and so was the case in the IPL as he has not found any takers since the 2013 season when he represented Delhi Daredevils.
