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

#1 Jaydev Unadkat (Rajasthan Royals)

The Porbandar pacer was probably in the seventh heaven when Chennai Super Kings and Kings XI Punjab were engaged in a fierce bidding war for him. But out of the blue, the blue army of Rajasthan bought him by placing just a single bid of Rs 11.5 crores. While it is very true that Unadkat has done exceptionally well for Rising Pune Supergiant last year, he had quite a few bad outings in IPL as well.

In 2014, he played 9 games and conceded runs at an economy rate of nearly 9 runs per over. In the very next year, he bowled just 3 overs and conceded 30 runs. In 2017, he played a single game, in which he conceded 49 runs without taking any wicket. His international T20 career economy rate too is nearly 9 runs per over. Rajasthan will want him to pull off last year's heroics, as he will be their main strike bowler.
