#2 Gautam Gambhir
Gautam Gambhir is arguably one of the best batsmen in IPL history. Before the start of the season, he has scored more than 4000 runs in IPL and was the third highest run-getter in IPL. He led Kolkata to two title wins and also amassed 498 runs in IPL 2017.

Delhi bought him to lead the side because of his experience and ability to score runs at the top. However, Delhi’s most experienced played failed to inspire the team. Delhi lost five of their first six games this season and Gambhir stepped down from captaincy.
His performances with the bat were really poor. The 36-year-old scored only 85 runs in 6 games at an average of 17. With a strike rate of less than 100 in the power play overs, he exerted a lot of pressure on the middle order. All in all, Gambhir’s failure has put Delhi under a huge pressure, very early in the campaign.
