One expensive player from each IPL team who might not be retained
Cricket fans have been entertained by enthralling cricket in IPL 2018, but there have been disappointments too. Players were bought for some unbelievable prices in the mega-auction before IPL. However, some of these players haven't been able to justify the big bucks paid for them.
Performances might not have been the worst, but certainly not up to the expectations that their teams had from them. Teams might decide against retaining these players at the next auction, which will increase their purse and help them buy new players.
We will look at one player from each team who might not be retained next year and might have to come under the hammer at the next auction.
#8 Aaron Finch - Kings XI Punjab
Aaron Finch was bought by Kings XI Punjab for a hefty amount of Rs. 6.2 crores at the auction. Expectations were high from the Australian opener but unfortunately, his performance has been disappointing.
In the 6 matches that he has played this season, he has scored a meager 24 runs at an average of 6.
With KXIP already having a lot of opening options in KL Rahul, Chris Gayle and Mayank Agarwal, it's highly improbable that they will retain Finch next year.
