The swashbuckling South Africa-born English cricketer Kevin Pietersen was the most expensive buy in the IPL auction prior to the 2009 season in South Africa when he was picked up by the Royal Challengers Bangalore for a whopping $1.55m.

Leading RCB in 6 games, Pietersen managed 2 victories and suffered 4 losses. His most dreaded run with captaincy was when he was the leader of Delhi Daredevils in the 2014 season.

He had a solitary win to show for his efforts, and the team suffered 10 losses en route to their last position finish in the forgettable season.
