Well, the IPL 2022 season has now reached its paramount stage. So far all the group-stage games have been settled resulting in a robust qualification of four teams (RR, GT, LSG &amp; RCB). However, the heavyweights of the tournament- MI, CSK &amp; DC have all disappointingly failed to reach the playoffs.

But amidst all the 70 matches that have happened, many franchises had made blunders with regards to their best playing XI. Often in their process of trial and error, various franchises snubbed certain players who deserved a longer rope. Tragically, only at the fag end of the season, these players have received a re-entry into the team.

Therefore in this list, let’s check out these 5 players who were unlucky to be dropped

<img loading="lazy" class="size-full wp-image-647912" src="https://crictracker-admin-panel-08032022.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/media/attachments/Tim-David-1.jpg" alt="Tim David" width="640" height="400" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"><figcaption id="caption-attachment-647912" class="wp-caption-text">Tim David.

Tim David has been the biggest talk of the 2022 season for MI. The cricketer, while ending the tournament, has proven all his worth to the Mumbai management. Even before joining the IPL, David had a prolific PSL record and was expected to play all IPL 2022 games. However, his slight initial two failures surprisingly benched him for the first half of the season.

Particularly, after MI’s second encounter against RR, the management replaced David with Dewald Brevis. The <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/india-vs-south-africa-teams-squads/">SA</a> youngster in response had a decent debut season scoring 161 runs from 7 games. Initially, Brevis had unveiled himself explosively but the 18-year old lacked scoring big and closing games.

Comprehensively, the herculean David’s reappearance only occurred when Mumbai lost their first 8 matches. As the franchise was officially eliminated from the playoffs, MI again decided to retest the 26-year old.

Perhaps by casting him a bit late, David in response has smashed 186 runs from 8 games at a towering strike rate of 216.18. More importantly, by giving new vitality to the team, David singlehandedly won two games against RR and DC. Overall, interestingly after David’s comeback, MI has also finished with 4 wins out of their last six games. Surely in the next IPL season, the big hitter will play as a vital cog of the franchise.

Just like Tim David, even Devon Conway was dropped during the first half of IPL 2022. The Kiwi cricketer only played the IPL opener against KKR and then returned back against SRH. In his debut match, Conway scored just three runs after which Chennai decided to bench him.

Initially, his omission from the playing XI also occurred because of Chennai’s bleak bowling attack. The franchise had replaced the southpaw with Chris Jordan to bolster the pace bowling. Additionally, Moeen Ali’s availability at the top also refrained Conway from getting further opportunities.

However, in the ninth game against Hyderabad, the 30-year old made his re-entry by scoring an unbeaten 85 runs. More importantly, even Conway’s opening partner Ruturaj Gaikwad almost scored an impressive hundred.

Post his comeback match, Conway also smashed two fifty-plus scores. Overall, the Kiwi batter finished with 252 runs from 7 games at an average of 42. All in all, certainly Conway’s late-blooming will cast him as an established frontline opener in IPL 2023.

<img loading="lazy" class="size-full wp-image-640486" src="https://crictracker-admin-panel-08032022.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/media/attachments/Yashasvi-Jaiswal.jpg" alt="Yashasvi Jaiswal" width="640" height="400" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"><figcaption id="caption-attachment-640486" class="wp-caption-text">Yashasvi Jaiswal. (Photo Source: IPL/BCCI)</figcaption>

In RR’s ongoing successful campaign, Yashasvi Jaiswal has experienced a bittersweet 2022 season. The southpaw, as a retained player, initially started the tournament by opening at the top. However, his malfunction in the first three games immediately benched him for most of the competition.

Particularly at the start, the youngster registered two single-digit scores that apparently got him dropped. To replace him Rajasthan initially tried persisting with Karun Nair but the batter barely contributed much. In between, NZ’s Daryl Mitchell also made an appearance in two games. But as it seemed like <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/ipl-2022-rajasthan-royals-team-caught-in-weather-turbulence-on-their-way-to-kolkata-in-flight/">RR</a> slightly losing track, the management reinstated Jaiswal against PBKS in the 11th game.

In response to his comeback call, the 20-year old magnificently scored a match-winning 68 runs. Also more importantly, in his last four matches, Jaiswal has been amassing runs at an average of almost 47. Overall, with Buttler getting modest with his runs tally having Jaiswal as an emerging match winner is a big boon. Hopefully, the cricketer has also saved his best for the upcoming knockout stages.

(Photo Source: IPL/BCCI)</figcaption>

In IPL’s last few seasons, Mohsin Khan’s name was familiar to <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/t20/ipl-indian-premier-league/mi-mumbai-indians/?page=1">Mumbai Indians</a>. However, in the 2022 mega auction, LSG bought the pacer at his base price. Initially, the franchise also made him play their debut game but after that Mohsin got dropped. After LSG’s debut game against GT, the speedster was replaced by AJ Tye.

However, after the first half of IPL 2022, the management then altered their playing XI to bring back the 23-year old. In eight games so far, Mohsin has commendably scalped 13 wickets at an economy of just 5.93. Also in that wicket tally, the cricketer pouched a crucial four-wicket haul against DC.

Overall, Mohsin’s terrific bowling has also eased some pressure off other pacers like Avesh Khan. Hopefully, in the upcoming encounters, the youngster could fire on full cylinders.

<img loading="lazy" class="size-full wp-image-642597" src="https://crictracker-admin-panel-08032022.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/media/attachments/Jos-Buttler-vs-Chetan-Sakariya.jpg" alt="Jos Buttler vs Chetan Sakariya" width="640" height="400" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"><figcaption id="caption-attachment-642597" class="wp-caption-text">Jos Buttler vs Chetan Sakariya. (Photo Source: IPL/BCCI)</figcaption>

Sadly in IPL 2022, Chetan Sakariya just played three games for DC. The youngster throughout the tournament was found deputy to pacer Khaleel Ahmed. It was only when Khaleel got injury, Sakariya received his opportunity. Comprehensively from his three appearances, the left-arm pacer scalped three wickets at an economy of 7.64.

However, the DC management should have persisted with the 24-year old a lot more. Especially as both Anrich Nortje and Shardul Thakur had average seasons. Sakariya could have been their frontline defensive bowler. More importantly even Khaleel was known to leak runs at the death overs.

Overall, for Delhi, both their premier pacers- Nortje and Thakur leaked runs at an economy of over 9. Whereas if Sakariya would have played then even the conditions during the second half would have assisted his bowling. Conclusively, the seamer could have been much more fruitful in the crucial encounters.

Well, the IPL 2022 season has now reached its paramount stage. So far all the group-stage games have been settled resulting in a robust qualification of four teams (RR, GT, LSG &amp; RCB).

IPL 2022: 5 Players who were unlucky to be dropped

Interestingly, IPL 2022 is the first ever season wherein neither Chennai Super Kings nor Mumbai Indians have qualified for playoffs.
