The Indian Premier League has reached a crucial stage where the playoff picture becomes clearer with each match. Batsmen have showcased their prowess in the tournament, unleashing big sixes and monumental innings. However, amidst the brilliance, several big names have faltered this season, experiencing consistent flops and failed innings.
5 IPL flop batters in 2024
Player | Matches | Runs | Strike Rate |
Rohit Sharma | 12 | 330 | 152.78 |
Glenn Maxwell | 8 | 36 | 97.30 |
Ishan Kishan | 12 | 266 | 149.44 |
Ajinkya Rahane | 11 | 208 | 123.08 |

Rohit Sharma
Rohit Sharma is the biggest concern in the ongoing IPL as he is set to lead India in the T20 World Cup. The former captain of the Mumbai Indians has not performed to his best abilities this season. In 12 matches, Rohit has scored 330 runs at an average of 30.00.
Glenn Maxwell
Glenn Maxwell has been a major disappointment for the Royal Challengers Bangalore franchise. The team relied on him to provide power hitting in the middle overs, but the Australian batter failed to find his rhythm throughout the season, performing miserably. Consequently, he was dropped from the Playing XI after his dismal performances.
The all-rounder has only scored 36 runs in eight matches with a strike rate of 97.30.

Ishan Kishan
Ishan Kishan has also been struggling with his form for quite some time now. The Mumbai Indians batter has featured in 12 games and scored 266 runs this season. However, his strike rate of 149.44 is not sufficient in the shorter format of the game.
Ajinkya Rahane
Ajinkya Rahane had hoped to return to form by performing well in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, but his rough patch is not ending. The right-handed batter has played 11 matches and managed to score 208 runs with a poor strike rate of 123.08.
Aiden Markram
After Markram was removed from the captaincy of the Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL 2024, his performance has also deteriorated. The South African batter has featured in nine matches and scored 199 runs with a strike rate of 130.92.
