Jason Roy will be hot property in the 2020 IPL auction
The indifferent form of Evin Lewis might tempt Mumbai Indians to bid for the English World Cup hero Jason Roy at the upcoming auctions. Roy was unavailable for the 2019 season and will definitely be on the radar of many teams this time around.

Roy can change the course of the game in an over or two with his aggressive style of batting. He can be severe on pace bowlers as well as spinners, and can get the team off to flying starts.
Though Mumbai Indians have two experienced openers in Rohit Sharma and Quinton de Kock, the presence of Roy in the top 3 would be a truly scary proposition for the opponents.
Roy has an impressive strike rate of 145.12 in T20 internationals, and 133.58 in the IPL. He can add considerable value to an already impressive Mumbai Indians outfit.
