The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 has been a rollercoaster ride so far, with several high-profile players failing to live up to their billing. While some players have lit up the tournament with their stellar performances, others, despite being the most expensive signings at the auction, have struggled to make an impact. In this article, we take a closer look at three such players who have failed to deliver on their hefty price tags and have not been able to make a significant impact for their respective teams in IPL 2024.
- Alzarri Joseph (11.5 cr – RCB): The West Indian seamer was expected to bolster Royal Challengers Bangalore’s bowling attack, but he has struggled to make an impact. Joseph has picked up just one wicket in the three matches he played and has been expensive, conceding runs at 11.89 per over. Due to his poor performance, he has not been a part of the playing XI in subsequent matches.
- Spencer Johnson (10 cr – GT): After a promising start, Australian left-arm pacer Spencer Johnson has faded away in the tournament. He has picked up just one wicket in three matches and has been expensive, conceding at over 9 runs per over. Johnson has not been able to replicate his initial success and will be looking to improve in the upcoming matches.
- Sameer Rizvi (8.4 cr – CSK): The hard-hitting batsman was expected to provide fireworks for Chennai Super Kings, but he has failed to deliver so far. Rizvi showed glimpses of his ability with a quick cameo in one match but has not been able to contribute significantly. He has not batted in several matches, indicating a lack of trust from the team management.
These players were considered key signings for their respective teams but have so far failed to make a significant impact. As the tournament progresses, they will be looking to turn their fortunes around and justify their hefty price tags.
