Most of the fans know Ben Laughlin for his good performances in IPL 2018, but very few remember that this was not his debut in the great IPL.

The Melbourne-born seamer, Laughlin is the leading wicket-taker in the Big Bash League. The 36-year-old T20 master is an experienced bowler and possesses an innovative variation of pace. In 2013, Laughlin made his first appearance in the Indian Premier League. He played in 2 games for CSK and took only one wicket with a dreadful economy rate of 10.24.

Given that CSK already had an experienced and skilled bowling lineup, and hence he was let go.

Post his elimination from CSK, Laughlin continued to be unsold in the auctions until 2018 when Rajasthan Royals put faith in him. He was given an opportunity middle of the season and picking up 9 wickets in 8 matches at an economy rate of 10.29. Despite his great performance with the ball, he missed retaining his deal with RR.
