Amit Mishra is one of the most underrated and unlucky cricketers
Mumbai Indians - Mitchell McClenaghan

Mitchell McCleneghan
Mitchell McClenaghan is one of the most underrated players in the entire league. Despite his consistent performances for the Mumbai Indians every season, he's not being accorded the recognition he deserves and has continued to be ignored by the national side. McClenagahan combines raw pace with very accurate line and length and is a strike bowler who thrives as an opening bowler. Though he doesn't swing the ball very well, he can extract lateral movement and also has a very good bouncer.
This season, he's expected to partner either Behrendorff or Malinga in the pace bowling department. He can also be used as a backup for Behrendorff and come into play once the former leaves to prepare for the WC. McClenaghan is also a pinch hitter and can be used for quick runs. His height makes him a good outfielder and he has also taken many run-outs.
