Gautam Gambhir had a fairytale run with the Kolkata Knight Riders, but the veteran decided to move to the Delhi Daredevils (DD) and was roped in at INR 2.8 crores. The 37-year-old was appointed as the leader bearing in mind his past records. Nevertheless, the southpaw flattered to deceive and resigned from captaincy midway through the tournament.

To add insult to injury, he didn’t play a single match thereafter as Shreyas Iyer captained the team. The left-hander started with a knock of 55 against Kings XI Punjab (KXIP), but his campaign fell away and could only score 30 runs in the next four innings. His strike-rate of 96.59 was also on the lower side, which didn’t help him stay put in his position.
