6. Mitchell Santner (Chennai Super Kings)
World No.6 bowler in T20 Internationals, the Kiwi was purchased by the men in yellow at the base price of 50 lakh. He represented Chennai Super Kings in 4 games last season. With 4 wickets at an economy rate of 6.7, and 32 runs in 4 innings at an average of 32, he did well in the limited opportunities given to him.
MS Dhoni is not known to tinker around with the Playing XI that much. He didn’t get a chance in the starting XI in a single game till now. And knowing Dhoni and Fleming, the possibility of him remaining on the bench for the entire season if he stays in CSK cannot be ruled out.
Teams like Delhi Capitals or Kolkata Knight Riders could use his services. The loss of Amit Mishra for Delhi is a huge blow, and a veteran spinner in the reserves could genuinely benefit the team. Hetmyer is not in form, so they could look at replacing him with Rahane, and an Indian pace option with Santner on spin-friendly tracks.
