Andrew Symonds is a natural, whether he bowls, bats or celebrates the loss of an opposition wicket. The temperamental player has had several run-ins with the law, but his talent overshadows his personality. He was the most popular overseas player at the IPL auction in 2008, where he commanded US$1.35m. He played just four games for Deccan Chargers before reporting to West Indies for national duty in IPL, Season 2008. In the second edition, he joined the tournament midway because he was away playing against Pakistan in Abu Dhabi with the national side.
