One thing that makes MI such a balanced and fearful side is the fact that they have a plethora of all-rounders in their ranks who can take the game away on their own. MI currently have four to five top all-rounders and the one who has performed the worst this season is Ben Cutting.

The Australian had a good time last year but this season, he hasn't done enough with the opportunities that he has got. His problems with facing spin are well known to everyone and that has been exploited this year. In his three matches, Cutting has scored just 18 runs. He has picked up only one wicket at an economy rate of almost 14.

With Hardik Pandya and Krunal Pandya being the preferred all-rounders, I don't see Cutting getting many opportunities. Also, with Kieron Pollard finding form, his chance of getting into the team as a pure batsman also seems to be fading away. So, there is a huge chance we might see him being released next year.
