All-time underperforming IPL XI
Now, this sort of topic is a difficult task for any writer or fan as every fan would have different opinions and he may disagree on someone else's choices. But, every sport has some players who are not able to keep up with the expectations of the fans or are not able to make full use of their talent.
However, it is to be kept in mind that the following players are not on this list because they are bad players, but because they are good players who have just not been able to live up to the expectations in the IPL.
Hence, certain individuals who have been excellent at the game are present in this unique XI as well.
#1 Mayank Agarwal
The biggest talking point in Indian domestic cricket for the past couple of years, Mayank Agarwal has consistently done injustice to his talent in the IPL. Mayank was the highest scorer in the 2017-18 season of the Ranji trophy scoring over 1000 runs at an average of 105 and strike rate of 69. KXIP signed Mayank with plenty of expectations in the following IPL and gave him plenty of opportunities but, Mayank like always, failed to deliver in the IPL as he managed only 120 runs in 11 innings.
The Karnataka opener has an awful record in the IPL where in his 59 innings he has only managed 934 runs at an average and strike rate of 16 and 123, respectively. While Mayank struggles in the IPL, he has an excellent domestic T20 record where he has scored 1347 runs at an average and strike rate of 35 and 136, respectively.
The above stats and the fact that he has only three fifties in the IPL clearly shows that Mayank has been a consistent under-performer in the IPL over the years.
