5 uncapped Indian players who did not justify their hefty price tags in the IPL

#4 Kedar Jadhav

Kedar Jhadav playing for the Delhi Daredevils

When the Delhi Daredevils spent lavishly on Kedar Jadhav in 2014, many believed that it was a wise decision. Jadhav was a top scorer in the Ranji trophy and had made a name for himself in the domestic circuit for being one of the finest batsmen.

Anxious to acquire his services, DD spent Rs. 2 crore on him in the IPL 7 auctions. But Jadhav failed to deliver, managing only 149 runs from 10 games at an average of 29.80. In IPL 8, his performance was even worse as he scored 189 runs in 14 games at an average of 23.62.

Jadhav does have potential as many who have seen his century in India colours will testify. But he has not been consistent enough for the Daredevils. DD has spent lavishly on players with potential, like him, leaving them without a lot of star names in their batting order. That may be one of the reasons why they have struggled in the recent past.
