IPL 2018: 5 players who can potentially replace Pat Cummins

#2 Jon-Jon Smuts

England v South Africa - 3rd NatWest T20 International

Jon-Jon Trevor Smuts is a name that might not be very well-known in the cricketing world yet, but this could be the opportunity that the young man from South Africa needs in order to make an impact on the international stage.

Smuts is an opening batsman and a slow left-arm bowler. This will provide Mumbai Indians with something in both the batting as well as the bowling department, which should come in handy especially on slow pitches where spinners might thrive.

Some cricketing fans might consider Smuts to be a risky replacement, especially due to the fact that he is relatively unknown. Then again, this might be the perfect reason to select the young man.
