IPL 2019: 3 expensive players who have turned out to be disappointments this season

#1 Shimron Hetmyer (Royal Challengers Bangalore)

Shimron Hetmyer

The stylish left-handed batsman from the West Indies was bought with a lot of expectations by the Royal Challengers Bangalore at this year's auctions. Shimron Hetmyer came into the limelight during the ODI series against India where he awed everyone with his clean hitting and aggressive mindset.

The Guyanese batsman slammed a terrific century off just 78 balls and he ended up scoring 259 runs in that five-match series. This helped him grab a hefty amount of INR 4.2 crore at the IPL auction, and he was expected to provide massive strength to the Virat Kohli-led RCB in the middle or lower middle order.

All those expectations went down the drain as Hetmyer disappointed severely. He has played just four games so far in which he has managed to score just 15 runs. As a result, RCB have not been able to finish off games well and they find themselves at the bottom of the points table.
