Lasith Malinga for the Mumbai Indians [file]

The only player in IPL history to scalp 150+ wickets, Malinga is an obvious choice for retention. Lasith Malinga is one of the best pacers Sri Lanka have ever produced. Having played 110 matches for Mumbai Indians, Malinga has been an integral part of the all three IPL winning seasons for Mumbai Indians.

Malinga, being a death-overs specialist, would work in unison with Jasprit Bumrah. Mumbai Indians wouldn't mind spending a little more to retain this Sri Lankan legend. Retaining him will give a huge boost to the Mumbai Indians team and fans.
