IPL 2026: 3 players struggling to make an impact so far

The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 has already delivered its fair share of thrills, breakout performances, and match-winning brilliance. However, amidst the chaos and excitement, a few highly rated players have struggled to live up to expectations.

Whether it’s a lack of consistency, limited opportunities, or simply being out of form, these players have yet to showcase the true potential that made them the ones to watch coming into the tournament. As the league progresses and pressure mounts, the spotlight will remain firmly on these underperformers to turn things around and make a meaningful impact for their respective teams.

Here are 3 players who haven’t quite impressed in IPL 2026 so far:

3. Cameroon Green (KKR)

The most expensive overseas player in IPL’s history, Cameron Green has not lived to the humongous expectations at the Indian Premier League 2026 for Kolkata Knight Riders in their first three matches so far. The Aussie all-rounder is yet to bowl for the Kolkata-based franchise, whereas the things are not going well for him with the bat, either.

Green, in three innings so far, has scored a mere 24 runs for KKR, and yet to deliver a match winning performance for Ajinkya Rahane’s side. Despite bad form, Green remains one of the best exciting talents going around, and if he clicks, we can expect fireworks from his bat, especially on a good Eden Gardens wicket.
