The Indian Premier League (IPL) which is the best T20 competition in the world has invariably been an alluring event for players from all around the world and has always enjoyed the appearances of the elites playing the game.

The competition during its initial days was well known to uphold the presence of the greats who have ruled the game and till now continues to relish the availability and involvement of the modern-day legends.

However, sometimes in this overpowering arrangement, there have been instances when a quarrel between a player and an IPL franchise has eventually caused a huge ordeal wherein it’s the player who mostly had faced the maximum heat by being at the receiver&#8217;s end.

Over the years, even the most accomplished envoys of the game have undergone some kind of derision coming from these IPL teams and have yet merrily preferred to continue playing the IPL.

Keeping in mind the IPL’s rich flourishing history, here are 5 occurrences when players were disrespected by IPL teams

1. David Warner’s omission from the playing XI after losing his captaincy (IPL 2021)

<img loading="lazy" class="size-full wp-image-510820" src="https://crictracker-admin-panel-08032022.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/media/attachments/David-Warner-6.jpg" alt="David Warner" width="640" height="400" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"><figcaption id="caption-attachment-510820" class="wp-caption-text">David Warner. (Photo Source: IPL/BCCI)</figcaption>

David Warner, who has often been SRH’s biggest aggregator of runs since IPL 2016 was recently handed a red card by the SRH management both for his captaincy and for his appearance in the playing XI. The SRH team under Warner’s captaincy had lost five out of their first six games and were highly grappling to choose their best four overseas player slots.

Now as per the statements coming from the SRH’s think tank, Warner’s omission both as captain and as a batter was mainly pursued to fetch a right team balance in the playing XI, as SRH was seen struggling with its middle-order batting. Also with players like Rashid Khan, <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/ipl-2021-twitter-reacts-to-kane-williamsons-mediocre-captaincy-against-rajasthan-royals/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kane Williamson</a> and Jonny Bairstow already brimming with their overall rich form, it was David Warner who had to sacrifice his slot in the playing XI.

Despite scoring two half-centuries scores along with an average of over 30, Warner was eventually enforced for a prolonged omission even if the new team combination doesn’t fetch the desired results. However, for the fans and many cricket pundits, Warner’s omission seemed to be a little perplexing, as the opening partnership of his and Jonny Bairstow had produced some solid starts at the top for the team.

All in all, regardless of Warner’s omission sounding logical, many fans were seen sympathizing with David Warner and found his sacking as utterly disrespectful. With Warner also being the biggest match-winner for the franchise since 2016, the entire matter became the bitterest pill to swallow inside the SRH camp.

2. MS Dhoni’s sacking as RPS captain (IPL 2017)

(Photo Source: Twitter)</figcaption>

This dreadful incident had occurred in IPL 2017, as MS Dhoni, who was IPL’s most accomplished captain at that time was enforced to quit his captaincy for the Pune franchise. In IPL 2016, the RPS team under MS Dhoni’s captaincy had finished in the bottom half of the points table and mainly because of this overall inferiority, the owners eventually wanted a young captain like <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/i-was-surprised-he-decided-to-go-mark-taylor-on-steve-smith-playing-in-ipl-2021-at-inr-2-2-crores/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Steve Smith</a> to lead them in the next season.

While the team’s poor run under MS Dhoni in IPL 2016 was the hallmark reason for appointing a new captain, the entire incident later was found to have some other swirling angles. Sanjiv Goenka, whose the owner of the RPS franchise, had later revealed in an interview about his awful experience of working with MS Dhoni especially highlighting Dhoni’s overall conduct as the skipper of the team, along with his unneeded suggestions in the non-cricketing matters of the franchise.

Mr Goenka in his interview had also further underlined how Dhoni’s sacking decision had become unacceptable for many, but the fans, in particular, saw this entire episode as an obnoxious mortification to captain cool’s s overall towering legacy in the game. Overall, after getting conveyed regarding his captaincy loss, MS Dhoni was found to remain unaffected and continued playing like an elite player of the franchise.

3. Sourav Ganguly’s sacking as KKR captain in IPL 2009

<img loading="lazy" class="size-full wp-image-462041" src="https://crictracker-admin-panel-08032022.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/media/attachments/Sourav-Ganguly.jpg" alt="Sourav Ganguly" width="640" height="400" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"><figcaption id="caption-attachment-462041" class="wp-caption-text">Sourav Ganguly. (Photo by Tom Shaw/Getty Images)</figcaption>

Sourav Ganguly, who was KKR’s first IPL skipper in the inaugural edition was later scrapped from captaincy in the second IPL season mainly because of the coach John Buchanan’s rubbish theory of multi- captaincy. The KKR team under Ganguly’s captaincy had reasonably failed to make it into the semis of the first IPL season which in particular became a fitting reason for the coach John Buchanan to try out his multi captaincy endeavour.

However, before the start of the second IPL season, John Buchanan in a press conference was seen struggling to immaculately explain how his theory was not pursued because of Ganguly’s substandard captaincy along with also erasing rumours about any rift between the two. Later on, the multi captaincy theory, in general, turned out to be havoc for the franchise, eventually making the team endure its worst-ever IPL season.

Nevertheless, after the team’s appalling show, it was found out that <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/the-cricket-system-is-robust-bcci-president-sourav-ganguly-names-reasons-behind-indian-crickets-success/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sourav Ganguly</a> was demoralized in the KKR set up and his captaincy sacking also sought some direct involvement from the owners. All in all, the overall churning of events had once again allowed Ganguly to gain commemorative support from his fans thus eventually allowing him to regain his captaincy for the third season.

4. Glenn McGrath’s resentful stint with DD in IPL 2009

<img loading="lazy" class="size-full wp-image-514855" src="https://crictracker-admin-panel-08032022.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/media/attachments/Glenn-McGrath.jpg" alt="Glenn McGrath" width="640" height="400" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"><figcaption id="caption-attachment-514855" class="wp-caption-text">Glenn McGrath. (Photo Source: Twitter)</figcaption>

Glenn McGrath, who had first played a prominent role in DD’s prosperous IPL campaign in 2008, was seen disgruntled against the franchise in IPL 2009, mainly because of his complete omission from the side. Just like the previous season, the DD team under Sehwag’s captaincy was upholding a robust squad especially with its Indian pace contingent (Ashish Nehra, Pradeep Sangwan &amp; Aavishkar Salvi) performing consistently for them.

Even the Victorian pacer Dirk Nannes from Australia was vigorously hounding batters with his pace and bounce and was scalping wickets with ease. Hence, the overall steadfastness of this bowling attack had barely propelled DD to infuse <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/the-difference-he-made-was-to-bring-in-the-aura-of-calmness-prasidh-krishna-on-glenn-mcgraths-influence-on-his-bowling/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Glenn McGrath</a> into the playing XI and perhaps also barely found him a match fit for the entire season.

However, later on, while expressing his dissatisfaction, McGrath had revealed about him being much fitter from last year and unfortunately because of his prolonged bench-warming experience he might prefer skipping the next IPL season. In the end, Glenn McGrath’s terrifying omission had made DD endure a severe castigation from its fans especially when the team lost a horrifying semi-final against DC.

5. Chris Gayle’s displeasure on not been retained by RCB (IPL 2018)

<img loading="lazy" class="size-full wp-image-496124" src="https://crictracker-admin-panel-08032022.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/media/attachments/Virat-Kohli-and-Chris-Gayle.jpg" alt="Virat Kohli and Chris Gayle" width="640" height="400" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"><figcaption id="caption-attachment-496124" class="wp-caption-text">Virat Kohli and Chris Gayle. (Photo by MANAN VATSYAYANA/AFP/GettyImages)</figcaption>

Chris Gayle, who is often regarded as the Universal Boss of the shortest format, had once churned out his extreme disappointment against the RCB franchise for not retaining him in IPL 2018. As per Gayle’s comments, the RCB franchise before the 2018 auction, had assured him about his potential retention, but during the auction day, the management barely made any kind of bid on Chris Gayle’s proposition.

Earlier in IPL 2017, Chris Gayle had an inferior season with RCB as only 200 runs had come from his nine outings in that season. However, soon after the IPL and while playing in the CPL and BPL, Gayle was again seeing topping the charts which also involved two invigorating Gayle-storm centuries from his bat.

Hence, his brimming batting form would have also played a crucial role regarding Gayle’s anticipated retention. Nevertheless, after facing ignorance from the RCB franchise, <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/chris-gayle-breaks-down-while-remembering-his-late-mother-this-mothers-day/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chris Gayle</a> highly criticized the management for giving him false impressions before the auction.

The Universal Boss, who is often a peppy character both on and off the field had unaffectedly accepted his departure, but a false assurance turned out as a disheartening experience for him.

Later on, when Chris Gayle had started to score heavily for the PBKS team, the RCB fans had distinctly denounced the red army regarding the Jamaican’s omission.

Glenn McGrath, who had first played a prominent role in DD’s prosperous IPL campaign in 2008, was seen disgruntled against the franchise in IPL 2009, mainly because of his complete omission from the side. Just like the previous season, the DD team under Sehwag’s captaincy was upholding a robust squad especially with its Indian pace contingent (Ashish Nehra, Pradeep Sangwan &amp; Aavishkar Salvi) performing consistently for them.
Even the Victorian pacer Dirk Nannes from Australia was vigorously hounding batters with his pace and bounce and was scalping wickets with ease. Hence, the overall steadfastness of this bowling attack had barely propelled DD to infuse <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/the-difference-he-made-was-to-bring-in-the-aura-of-calmness-prasidh-krishna-on-glenn-mcgraths-influence-on-his-bowling/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Glenn McGrath</a> into the playing XI and perhaps also barely found him a match fit for the entire season.
However, later on, while expressing his dissatisfaction, McGrath had revealed about him being much fitter from last year and unfortunately because of his prolonged bench-warming experience he might prefer skipping the next IPL season. In the end, Glenn McGrath’s terrifying omission had made DD endure a severe castigation from its fans especially when the team lost a horrifying semi-final against DC.

Chris Gayle, who is often regarded as the Universal Boss of the shortest format, had once churned out his extreme disappointment against the RCB franchise for not retaining him in IPL 2018. As per Gayle’s comments, the RCB franchise before the 2018 auction, had assured him about his potential retention, but during the auction day, the management barely made any kind of bid on Chris Gayle’s proposition. 
Earlier in IPL 2017, Chris Gayle had an inferior season with RCB as only 200 runs had come from his nine outings in that season. However, soon after the IPL and while playing in the CPL and BPL, Gayle was again seeing topping the charts which also involved two invigorating Gayle-storm centuries from his bat. 
Hence, his brimming batting form would have also played a crucial role regarding Gayle’s anticipated retention. Nevertheless, after facing ignorance from the RCB franchise, <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/chris-gayle-breaks-down-while-remembering-his-late-mother-this-mothers-day/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chris Gayle</a> highly criticized the management for giving him false impressions before the auction. 
The Universal Boss, who is often a peppy character both on and off the field had unaffectedly accepted his departure, but a false assurance turned out as a disheartening experience for him. 
Later on, when Chris Gayle had started to score heavily for the PBKS team, the RCB fans had distinctly denounced the red army regarding the Jamaican’s omission.

There have been instances when a quarrel between a player and an IPL franchise has eventually caused a huge ordeal.
