The big burly Australian was probably born in a wrong era as his game was tailor-made for the crash, bang version of T20 cricket and when the IPL took off, the Queenslander was towards the fag end of his career, but this did not prevent him to stamp his authority over the league.

He wore the Chennai Super Kings colour for the duration of his IPL career and was an out-and-out match-winner for the franchise.

He strode out to open the batting and more often than not got the team off to a blazing start and set the perfect platform for the others to walk in an express themselves.

In 32 matches, Hayden peeled off 1107 runs at an average of 36.9 and with a dominating strike-rate of 137.52.
