11 Players who flopped in the year 2016

8. Soumya Sarkar

Soumya Sarkar had emerged on the big stage as Bangladesh’s big hope in the batting department. But the 23-year old had a dismal outing in 2016. A poor run at the World T20 was followed by a string of poor performances for the national outfit thereafter. In the 20 matches that he played this year across the 3 formats, he failed to score a single fifty.

Such precarious was the situation that towards the end of the year, the team head coach hinted at axing him from the squad. In the 20 matches that he played, he scored just 287 runs at a poor average of 14.72. His top score was a mere 48 this year.
