IPL Auction 2021: Tom Curran might target by Mumbai Indians to fill their overseas slots

The Mumbai Indians are commonly regarded as one of the best T20 teams ever. Their power on the bench is capable of creating another franchise and making it to the playoffs. The franchise could try out every possible combination for the team as we look forward to another exciting season of the Indian Premier League (IPL). It is almost assured that they will make it to the playoffs.

In the Mumbai Indians squad, Mitchell McClenaghan was a part of the core during mid-2010. Mitchell managed to pick up wickets from the other end, with Malinga bowling from one end. He's also been a good opening bowler. He drew two overs in the powerplay and two during the death overs, with an economy rate of 8.49.

He took 71 wickets with the best bowling figure of 4/21 in his IPL career. In a batsman-friendly pitch in Mumbai, this speaks about his ability to bowl. However, as a fiery Boult was always the first choice for the franchise, the Kiwi left-hander was left unused by the management. He had to warm the benches as a consequence.

Mitchell could adequately swing the bat, but that wasn't enough to get him into the eleventh game. Tom Curran is one bowler who could tick off the charts. The English allrounder, recently released by the Rajasthan Royals, can bat as he scored a half-century last season and is an experienced bowler. The franchise-based in Mumbai can look forward to including Tom Curran in their playing eleven with an ageing Pollard in their squad.
