More than half of the 15th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) has been completed and there are still so much of things to take place. This sixth week was a blockbuster, we saw some amazing things happening in the last seven days, including Liam Livingstone’s humongous 117 m six while Umran Malik became the first Indian to clock 157 km/h delivery.

The newest IPL franchise Gujarat Titans are still at the top of the points table and the five-time champion Mumbai Indians became the first team to get knocked out of the race to the playoffs. Jos Butler is currently the owner of the Orange Cap while the Purple Cap is with Yuzvendra Chahal. A lot of twists and turns are expected to happen with the competition getting intense.

IPL 2022 has reached the business end of the tournament and many players are still not able to perform despite having big reputations. Almost every franchise has two or three such players who were expected to be the match-winners, but they are having a season to forget. The competition has been extraordinary this season. On that note, let’s take a look at the flop XI from the sixth week of the tournament.

The stylish southpaw has been in and out of form throughout this season. After impressing everyone with the Royal Challengers Bangalore, Padikkal is now an important block for the Rajasthan Royals. He was being sent at number three and four during the initial few games of the season but as the season progressed, he got to bat at his favourite batting position.

Padikkal has failed to live up to the expectations this season. While Jos Buttler has hit set the stage on fire, Padikkal has blown hot and cold with the bat. He got out quite early scoring a run-a-ball 15 against Mumbai Indians. He was dismissed by Hrithik Shokeen who was playing his third IPL game.

The Jaipur-based franchise took on the Kolkata Knight Riders on Monday, in which Padikkal got out in the third over of the game, scoring two off just five balls. The southpaw has played all ten games for RR this season so far and has scored 216 runs at an average of 21.6. Despite batting in 1o innings, he has managed just a single 50+ score.
