5 players Mumbai Indians should pick in IPL 2019

4. David Wiese

David Wiese, the South African all-rounder, might be the perfect replacement for Kieron Pollard who failed to make any impact despite the fact that the franchise had used a Right to Match card for him. Wiese will give them the bowling option as well where they fell short this year and only had Ben Cutting. It will be a refreshing change for the team who have been depending on the Caribbean player all these years to put them out of the hole. Clearly, he looked far from his best in this season and didn’t even bowl as well.

Wiese has an experience of playing a whopping 159 matches in the shortest format of the game and has scored 1277 with a brilliant strike-rate of 147.80. His contribution with the ball is also immense as he has picked 130 wickets with 3 four-wicket hauls and a same number of five-fers to his name. He has played for RCB before and has lived up to his reputation of being an all-rounder. It was baffling to see him go unsold in the auction and Mumbai will be looking to make amends next year.
