IPL 2014: 5 players who proved they are not one-hit wonders

This whole X-Factor thing with people assuming Im going to be a one-hit wonder that wont happen with me.- Cher LloydOne-hit wonder, flash in the pan, these clichedphrases are often used for people who look very promising, begin with a bang and end up being a dud.It's very easy to become one of that kind when the competition is as stiff as the Indian Premier League. You don't perform, you perish. There is no place for mediocrity.Here are 5 talents who have passed the test of time to prove they were not one-hitwonders.

#5 Jaydev Unadkat

From 2010, since his debut with KKR, this Gujarati lad was seen as a high potential youngster for whom sky was the limit. In the limited opportunities he got in those early years he had already made some eyes roll his way. Then the bowling coach of KKR, the king of swing Wasim Akram commented about him as “someone to watch out for”. 

In the three years he spent with the Knight Riders, Unadkat was considered a good option but rather an alternative for the main bowlers. He had to warm the bench many times as it often happens in the ever competitive IPL.

Then in 2013, he was bought by Vijay Mallya’s RCB and this was the year he truly shone in his glory. 13 wickets from 8 matches put him in the top list of bowlers in the last season.

In 2014, he found a new owner in Delhi which as a team is having a nightmare of a tournament but Unadkat has emerged as the biggest positive for the side. He has been the highest wicket taker for them with 8 from 8 matches. At just 22 years of age, he has an entire international career waiting ahead of him.
