IPL 2018: 5 Players with zero title win

 

The Indian Premier League will get underway for the 11th time and the teams are already in full swing in getting ready to win the elusive title. As we discuss winning the IPL title, Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma is the only player to have won the tournament four times while the likes of Harbhajan Singh, Ambati Rayudu, Yusuf Pathan, Vinay Kumar, Lasith Malinga etc. have won the title thrice.

5. Chris Gayle

In the nine years, the left-hander has scored 3626 runs in 100 innings at an average of over 41 and a strike-rate of 151.20 with the help of 265 sixes, the most by anyone. In spite of all these, he does not have the trophy that matters.

4. Ajinkya Rahane

He is back with the Royals for the 2018 IPL and will be leading the side in the 11th edition. He is one of the most prolific batsmen in the tournament as he has accounted for 3057 runs in 15 innings at an average of 33.59.

3. Virendre Sehwag

Sehwag turned up for Delhi Daredevils in the first six years before moving to Kings XI Punjab with whom he played the only IPL final in his career. Unfortunately for him, Manish Pandey's brilliance took the title away from his side.

2. Virat Kohli

In the 149 matches he has played so far, the right-hander has scored 4418 runs at an average of 37.44 and a strike-rate of 130. In the 2016 season, the RCB skipper scored 973 runs, but, that wasn't enough for him to win the IPL.  

1. AB de Villiers

Since then, he has been with the Bangalore-based franchise and till date, he is yet to know the feel of being an IPL champion, all this in spite of scoring 3473 runs in 118 innings at an average of 38.16 and a strike-rate of 148.16.
