IPL 2020: Teamwise one player who may be a burden for his franchise
In the thick of such cut-throat competition, some of the players have been dishing out below-par performances.
5. Umesh Yadav – RCB
The story of Umesh Yadav in RCB runs parallel to the team’s death bowling situation. Bowling with fiery pace since the beginning of his career, Yadav has failed to achieve success in the T20 league because of lack of proper bowling line and length. He has often disappointed in the death overs, nearly giving many matches away by conceding a lot of runs.
RCB has also constantly faced issues in its death bowling since a long time. The arrival of Isuru Udana and Chris Morris was expected to improve it significantly with Saini providing adequate support to the two overseas pacers. However, an untimely injury to the protean all-rounder propelled Yadav into the playing XI for the first 2 matches.
Yadav disappointed heavily in bot matches, going for runs and being smashed all over the park. His poor line along with his speed allowed even the edges to run quickly towards the boundaries. In such a scenario, his team’s death bowling suffered poorly and he was dropped for the 3rd match.
