The big-hitting Kiwi allrounder, Colin de Grandhomme had a decent IPL last year, scoring some quick runs at the death. But he endured some torrid time in the middle this season, scoring just 46 runs from 4 games. His failure to put bat to ball eventually cost RCB the game against Mumbai. He was dropped from the playing XI in favour of Marcus Stoinis in subsequent matches.

8. Andrew Tye (Kings XI Punjab)

Andrew Tye was the star of the show last year, bagging the purple cap with 24 wickets. He was the leader of the pack and solely carried Punjab’s hopes last year. Unfortunately for Punjab, he could not repeat his last year’s heroics and struggled to have an impact. Tye picked up just 3 wickets from 6 outings and was replaced by Hardus Viljoen from the playing XI. This led to the shortage of experience in Punjab’s attack which eventually cost them big in the later stages of the tournament.
