IPL 2018: Biggest flop from each team

#5 Wriddhiman Saha (Sunrisers Hyderabad)

Wriddhiman Saha is India's first-choice wicket-keeper, but his batting has always been under scrutiny. He silenced all his critics in 2014 when he scored a blistering century for Kings XI Punjab. That was also his best year in the IPL. However, he hasn’t been able to repeat that feat since then.

Debuting for SRH this year, he started as an opening batsman before being moved lower down the order. He couldn’t contribute much at the top of the order and was an absolute failure in the middle-order.

He just scored 122 runs in 11 matches with a strike-rate of 119.60. He was also replaced by Sreevats Goswami for a couple of games. A lot was clearly expected from him, but he failed to live up to expectations. One has to wonder whether keeping skills are good enough to guarantee you a place in the playing XI.

According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
