IPL 2022: Flop Overseas XI from second week of the tournament
Several big overseas names have flopped in the second week of IPL 2022, as young Indian stars continue to grab the headlines.
7. Rovman Powell
Rovman Powell has struggled with the bat in the opening games of IPL 2022. The West Indian all-rounder has not got a chance to make an impact with the ball, but he has failed to deliver when it comes to his batting prowess as well. Powell has been trusted by the Delhi management and has even been promoted to the top of the order, although he is yet to start firing this season.
He was dismissed for a quickfire knock of 20 runs off 12 balls against Gujarat Titans. The West Indian could have taken his side past the finishing line, given that he was looking comfortable out in the middle. Against Lucknow Super Giants, Rovman was sent at No. 3, after Delhi Capitals were handed a blistering start by Prithvi Shaw.
The stage was set for a big-hitter like him to flourish, however, he was dismissed for just 3 runs off 10 deliveries. Questions have been raised in regards to his place in the starting XI, and with someone like KS Bharat waiting in the wings, Powell must start contributing more often.
