Not a single Aussie eh?

Little surprising seeing how many of them make up the "foreign quota" in IPL teams

Polly , Simmo and Tarzan would make the 2nd XI

Injuries have hampered Simmo and Polly in recent years

Daren Bravo is one who lost big time....and the irony is he was trying to be loyal to WI cricket and the WICB.

Not many international playing ozzies were in the early IPL years...most were retirees like Hayden, Gilchrist, Warne, Symonds, Brett Lee, et all....in other words way past their best

Those who were playing international cricket at the time like Ponting ,Michael Clarke, and Hussey either played sparingly or refused IPL contracts...

Today....many young ozzies are actively playing...like their current cappo Steve Smith and David Warner....ozzie players today are looking after their financial interests and thereby putting pressure on cricket Australia to come up with a better package...

Notice how they are all now following the West Indian so called 'mercenaries' like Gayle, Bravo, Polly, Narine etc
