ipl stars who faded away, 5 players who got fame overnight from IPL, are living the life of anonymity today

IPL was started in 2008. Along with international players, domestic cricketers have also shown amazing performances in the league so far. Players like Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya, Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal have done wonders in the IPL and reached Team India. Today he has become a key player of the team. But there are some players who have done exceptionally well in the IPL. But then disappeared somewhere. This was the main reason for the lack of consistency in his performance. We are going to tell you about 5 such names.

Shivil Kaushik

Chinaman bowler is a rare sight in cricket. Kuldeep Yadav is the first Chinaman to play international cricket for India. In IPL 2016, Gujarat Lions signed Shivil Kaushik. His action resembled that of South African spinner Paul Adams. Because of this, he remained in a lot of discussion. He played 10 matches for Gujarat in the 2016 and 2017 seasons. Also took 6 wickets in it. In 2016 against Punjab, he took the wickets of Maxwell, Murali Vijay and Shaun Marsh. After IPL 2017, he did not play any domestic match.

Swapnil Asnodkar

Goa’s Swapnil Asnodkar had a big contribution in making Rajasthan champions in the first season of IPL. He scored 311 runs in 9 matches at an average of 34 and a strike rate of 134. He played his last match for Rajasthan in 2011. He never appeared in the league again. After his retirement in 2018, he became the coach of the Goa Under-23 team in 2019.

Paul Valthaty

Paul Valthaty came into the IPL like a storm. In the 2011 season for the Punjab Kings, he scored an innings of 120 off 63 balls against Chennai. This is still the biggest innings by an uncapped Indian batsman in the league. Even after this, he played many strong innings. Took wickets in bowling also. But soon his shine faded. In March 2018, Paul Valthaty was bought by Mumbai South Central for ₹50,000 in the Six Franchise Mumbai T20 League.

Kamran Khan

Australian great Shane Warne used to rate Kamran Khan very highly. Shane Warne often called him ‘Wild Thing’. He could bowl continuously at a speed of 140 km/h. His strongest weapon was the reverse swing which troubled the batsmen a lot. He showed amazing game for Rajasthan Royals in 2009. The first super over of the IPL was bowled by Kamran and gave Rajasthan the win. Took 9 wickets in 9 IPL matches with a bowling average of 24.89. Shane Warne had a lot of faith in him. He was reported for suspect bowling action, he lost his shine.

Parvinder Awana

Parvinder Awana played 33 IPL matches for Kings XI Punjab between 2012 and 2015. He even got a chance to play for India in 2012 after a good IPL season. He did not get any wicket in two T20 matches against England. Parvinder Awana retired from cricket in July 2018 at the age of just 32. After retirement, he does coaching.
