IPL 2018: 5 expensive players who can turn out to be big flops

#3 Jofra Archer (Rajasthan Royals)

Jofra Archer is currently a hot prospect, but so was Corey Anderson once, who failed to make a mark in the IPL. The Royals management have invested a lot of faith plus Rs 7.2 crores on the Barbadian, but a question mark remains on whether Archer will be able to prove them right.

Archer has been impressive in the Big Bash League but is yet to get a taste of the Indian cricketing fiesta. His T20 career economy rate is around 8 runs per over, which might increase under the excessive pressure of IPL. Also, Archer has got no international experience to show for. Hence, it remains to be seen how the 23-year-old will do in franchise-based cricket's biggest stage.
