IPL History: 5 players who had just one good season

#3 Sreenath Aravind for Royal Challengers Bangalore( 2012 season)

Sreenath Aravind

A promising left-arm seamer from Karnataka, Sreenath Aravind turned up for the Bengaluru-based outfit in IPL 4 and went on to create havoc. With 21 wickets in 13 matches at a startling strike-rate of 13.14, he concluded the season as RCB’s leading wicket-taker before being involved with the team in the 2011 Champions League where they lost to the Mumbai Indians.

He got selected to play for India in England the same year although he didn’t get a match. The 2012 IPL saw him feature in just a single game where he leaked 48 runs off three overs and had no wickets to show. The ensuing seasons conveniently wiped him off from public memory as he went back to doing the hard yards for Karnataka once again in the domestic circuit.

Aravind happens to be one of many fast bowlers that RCB have tried and who have failed to impress. With his left-arm variation, the fans of RCB had lot of hopes on this local lad but he failed to live up to their expectations.
