5. Lack of good all rounders hurting them
Pune Super Giants did lack genuine all rounders which could change the course of the match. They had Thisara Perera, Irfan Pathan, Mitchell Marsh as all-rounder options. Thisara Perera could not contribute with the bat and ball as the team wanted, Irfan Pathan was not given enough games to prove his credentials and Mitchell Marsh was ruled out of the tournament because of an injury. Pune needed one of these to stand up and deliver but they could not live up to the expectations.
