#5. Kane Williamson

It came as a shock to one and all when Sunrisers Hyderabad announced the release of their skipper Kane Williamson.

CSK have tried to acquire Kane Williamson in the past as well. In 76 IPL matches, Williamson has scored 2,101 runs at an average of 36.22 while striking at 126.03 with 18 fifties to his name.
