The 40-year-old is part of the LSG squad but didn't play a single game last season. In the domestic season, Mishra only picked up 10 wickets all season. He is definitely down in the pecking order in the LSG squad, especially with Ravi Bishnoi in the side.

He even scored 330 runs for RCB last season and was picked in India's squad for the T20 World Cup last October. But a dismal outing saw Karthik score only 14 runs in three innings and since then he has been in exile from the field. Karthik just played a solitary domestic match last season and scored 9 runs in that.

But MS Dhoni's ride in the IPL may take a permanent halt this season. The adopted son of Chennai epitomizes success and has been a serial winner in the IPL with CSK.
