Tymal Mills is an English express fast bowler known to bowl at 90kmph with ease. Mills is currently among the fastest bowlers on earth, making him the second biggest millionaire in the auction. He has an interesting journey as a player as he was diagnosed with a congenital back condition. Meaning, his spinal cord and vertebrae are unusually close together. And fast-bowling could agitate his condition and result in more complications.  So, he decided to streamline his career as a T20 specialist.

He featured in the NatWestT20 Blast and the Super Smash Tournament in New Zealand. He plays in the Bangladesh Premiere League for Chittagong Vikings, and is a very recent member of the Brisbane Heat squad in the Big Bash League. He played in the Quetta Gladiators during the Pakistan Super League this year where he picked 7 wickets in 5 matches. In the T20 series against India, he picked merely 3 wickets but his change-ups, fast 150+ kmph deliveries coupled with some brilliant slower balls along with deception were impressive.

RCB was in a serious need of a frontline fast bowler, especially one that can be economical at death. With Mitchell Starc’s departure from RCB, Mills became their first priority. RCB has welcomed the T20 specialist bowler, from a base price of 50 lakhs to a whopping 12 crore.
