Ranking top 10 unlucky Indian cricketers
They were star performers for their state, but unfortunately, failed at the big stage.
7. Robin Uthappa
Robin Uthappa was a regular member of the squad which was captained by Rahul Dravid. He was a consistent batsman during the 2005 and 2006 Challenger Series for India B. Robin on his debut scored 86 runs at Indore and later on, was picked for the 2007 World Cup.
Later on, he was a part of the inaugural T20 World Cup-winning side. He was also picked for the CB series in 2008 which India won. But, his form dipped after the Asia Cup in 2008. Adding on, the emergence of Suresh Raina and Virat Kohli made it difficult for Robin to make it to the side.
But in the 2014 season of the IPL, he won the Orange Cap after scoring 660 runs in the tournament. Soon after, his form again dipped and it was almost impossible for him to make it to the national side. Robin, whenever he was on the verge of cementing his place in the national side, lost his touch.
