IPL: 5 one-season wonders everybody has forgotten about

#4 Sreenath Aravind

Royal Challengers players congratulate Sreenath Aravind

A promising left-arm seamer from Karnataka, Sreenath Aravind turned up for the Bengaluru outfit in IPL 4 and went on to create havoc. With 21 wickets in 13 matches at a startling strike-rate of 13.14, he concluded the season as RCB’s leading wicket-taker before being involved with the team in the 2011 Champions’ Trophy where they lost to the Mumbai Indians.

He earned a national call-up for the England tour in the same year although he didn’t get a match. The 2012 IPL saw him feature in just a single game where he leaked 48 runs off 3 wicketless overs. The ensuing seasons conveniently wiped him off from public memory as he went back to doing the hard yards for Karnataka once again in the domestic circuit.
