An IPL to forget for Australians
Apart from Shaun Marsh, and to a lesser extent Doug Bollinger, there haven't been any outstanding Australian performers in the IPL, Jesse Hogan points out in the Sydney Morning Herald .
David Hussey, Cameron White and Daniel Christian were bought for a combined total of $US3.4 million ($A3.19 million) per season - $US1.4 million for Hussey, $US1.1 million for White, $900,000 for Christian - and were among the 20 most expensive players at January's IPL auction. But all three performed well below expectations.
