#2 Mohammad Shahzad
As stated before, Mumbai Indians will look to buy an aggressive batsman to partner Rohit Sharma at the top of the order. In all likelihood, their first choice target would be Jason Roy. If they fail to acquire him, they might turn their attention to their former team members, Alex Hales or Martin Guptill.
It won’t be surprising if the team management decides to go for Afghanistan’s Mohammad Shahzad as he is someone who is aggressive and is capable of giving the team a flying start. His record in India is exceptional and the Afghan-international won’t cost the franchise a lot when compared to other big names. However, the kind of destruction he causes with the bat is on par with most of his compatriots who are going under the hammer.
Shahzad also gives his team an extra dimension as he is a frontline wicketkeeper, something that will reduce the burden on Jos Buttler and allow him to play as a specialist batsman.
