#2 JP Duminy

One of the most accomplished batsmen in the history of South African cricket, Duminy has played a huge part in South Africa’s success for almost a decade. Having made his IPL debut in 2009, Duminy has played 83 matches in the Indian Premier League so far.

Duminy has scored 2029 runs in IPL at an average of almost 40 and a strike rate of 124. However, he wasn’t at his best in the past few IPL campaigns. In 2017 and 2018 combined, Duminy has played 16 games and scored only 227 runs at a strike rate of around 110.

Playing for Mumbai Indians in IPL 2018, Duminy managed only 36 runs from six games at a strike rate of only 90. Also, he has had his fair share of injury troubles in recent times. With the 2019 World Cup in mind, Duminy’s availability for 2019 IPL is still uncertain. Mumbai Indians rightly released him from their squad for the 2019 campaign.

Teams played: Mumbai Indians, Deccan Chargers, Sunrisers Hyderabad, Delhi Daredevils.
