IPL 2020 auction: 3 forgotten stars of the league

#1 Manvinder Bisla

Manvinder Bisla was a star for Kolkata Knight Riders's 2012 campaign

Manvinder Bisla blazed away to 89 from 48 balls as Kolkata Knight Riders clinched the 2012 IPL final against Chennai Super Kings with a comfortable 5-wicket win. The innings raised hopes that he would go on to become a T20 star for India in the years to come. Cut to 2019, he is a forgotten name even on the IPL circuit.

After an impressive showing in 2012, the Haryana player continued the good work for KKR in 2013 with 255 runs including two fifties. His smashed his IPL best of 92 off 61 against CSK. The innings featured 14 fours and 2 sixes, but Bisla’s spunk was in vain as KKR fell short by 14 runs in a high-scoring game.

Post the 2013 season, Bisla was never quite the same batsman. For the 2015 season, he was transferred by KKR to Royal Challengers Bangalore, where he finished his IPL career, featuring in just 2 games. He now tuns out for Goa in the domestic circuit.
