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.
9. Odean Smith
Odean Smith proved to be the match-winner in the first game against Royal Challengers Bangalore. However, the West Indian has failed to impress in the second week of the tournament. With the bat, he was dismissed for just three runs against Chennai Super Kings and was dismissed without scoring against Gujarat Titans.
He did manage to perform well with the ball against the reigning champions, conceding just 14 runs in his two-over spell, with the crucial wicket of Ambati Rayudu. However, he failed to defend 19 runs in the last over against Gujarat Titans, after he was whacked for two monstrous sixes by Rahul Tewatia in the last two deliveries of the game.
He conceded 35 runs in his three-over spell, without picking up a single wicket. Punjab Kings might consider bringing in English all-rounder Benny Howell if Smith continues to underperform.
