Australian cricketer D Arcy Short had made some serious ripples at the IPL auctions this season. He was snapped by the Rajasthan Royals. Riding on his stellar run in the BBL 2017-18 edition, Short was expected to continue his whirlwind knock in India as well. Much to his disappointment, he failed to get going in the competition.

Short, who is compared to David Warner back in Australia, had a pathetic run in IPL 2018. In the 7 matches that he played, he could muster just 115 runs at an average under 17. His struggle against the spinners was evident and all teams exploited his weaknesses in the season.
