#2 Ross Taylor

The veteran from New Zealand is a massive striker of a cricket ball. He scored 17 ODI hundreds striking at 80 plus per hundred balls. He has got a brilliant bat swing, and is a predominant leg-side player.
He has been around for a long time in the IPL and had a great season with the RCB to begin with, but with time his struggle against the turning ball continued. After playing 55 games, he has only scored 1017 runs at a strike rate of mere 123.72.
After he was not retained by RCB, he played for several other franchises but he failed to keep his place in a single franchise. He struggled against spin and his cross-batted shots didn't help his cause. He went unsold in the IPL auctions this year, which is not a surprise at all considering his past performances in the tournament.
