Most Worthless Player of IPL 2023

[Texan]

It's that time of the year!!! With the playoffs close to completion, it is time to pick the most worthless player of IPL 2023. This will be our 12th consecutive year for this thread theme. 

 

Here are winners from prior years:

2022: Rohit Sharma

2021: Nicholas Pooran

2020: MS Dhoni

2019: Yusuf Pathan

2018: Glen Maxwell

2017: Shane Watson

2016: David Miller

2015: Yuvraj Singh

2014: Chris Gayle

2013: Kumara Sangakkara

2012: Yusuf Pathan

 

*REMEMBER*

The most worthless player is a player who is earning big bucks, but performing miserably poorly. The more the bucks and the poorer the performance, the more worthless they are.

 

P.S. If you think that I missed someone, let me know and I will evaluate and determine if we need to add them to the poll.

Shardul Thakur

He has done okay I feel. Played one unbelievable knock and bowling wise, since KKR have lots of options, he doesn't get to bowl that much.

Sharukh atleast won one match.   DK phattu finishing. Then there is Rayudu who just had to do one job.  Parag rightfully dropped.  

[Majestic]

Mayank Agarwal and among big names who can't be dropped, it's none other than Rohit Sharma.

Rohit, the  highest paid guy in the poll, and who tends to be perennially on such lists 

[wanted_desi]

Kohli - Playing too slow to kill any chance his team has.

Ben Stokes getting 16 cr, did nothing.

We don't pick players who haven't got to play sufficient games in this list. Stokes only got to play 2 games before getting injured.

[Mariyam]

Any list without 's Jordan is a joke.
