IPL history: 10 players who have played for only one team

Sunil Narine

Sunil Narine has been retained by KKR for the upcoming season of IPL

The funky hairdo, the nonchalant celebrations and the ever-mesmerising spin wizardry of Sunil Narine have now turned into household assets across Kolkata.

Signing his maiden IPL contract in 2012, Narine has been a consistent performer for the Kolkata Knight Riders over the years. Notably, the mystery spinner currently stands as the seventh highest wicket-taker in the tournament's history. Spinning a web around the batsmen on a regular basis, the Windies cricketer had formed a crucial component of the squads that won the titles in 2012 and 2014 under the leadership of Gautam Gambhir.

Adding to his already coveted skillset with the ball is Narine's recently found flamboyance with the bat. Making the bowlers dance to his calypso beats at the top of the order, Narine dons the avatar of a fiery opener, getting the team off to flying starts quite regularly.
