IPL 2018: 5 players who should have played for a different franchise

UAE XI v England - T20 Tour Match
Chris Jordan is a proven death over specialist who has played just one match for SRH so far.

#4 Mohammad Nabi - Delhi Daredevils

BBL - Renegades v Scorchers
Mohammad Nabi has just played one match for the SRH so far

The only specialist off-spinner Delhi Daredevils have in their team is Jayant Yadav, who is quite unlikely to feature for them in this season. Their key spinners- Amit Mishra and Shahbaz Nadeem have done more than a decent job for them this year. What they have missed badly is another spinner who can turn the ball away from left-handers and someone who can give them a good finish with the bat. While Dan Christian and Chris Morris both have failed to do their job, Mohammad Nabi could have been an ideal candidate for the Daredevils.

Nabi has an amazing economy of 6.85 in 162 T20s he has played so far. He scores at 21.65 runs per innings with a strike rate of nearly 140. He is much more suitable for the Delhi track compared to Christan and Morris. He would have used the slow wicket of Feroz Shah Kotla to his advantage and his batting ability would have provided Delhi a vital boost in the death that they are desperately seeking this IPL.
