One of the fastest bowlers on the planet

From having Shaun Tait at their disposal before letting him go before the start of this season, Kolkata Knight Riders know all about having a bowler who is just known for his sheer pace. While it is true that Tymal Mills is one of the fastest bowlers in the world at the moment, he is much more than just raw speed.

The one thing that separates him from his contemporaries who also bowl quickly is his incredible accuracy. Ever since a congenital back condition forced him to turn away from first-class cricket, Mills has devoted all his attention to the shortest format and being one of the finest T20 bowlers in the world.

The result? A 24-year-old left-arm fast bowler who is incredibly quick, accurate and has great control over his variations which results in him being an incredible asset at the death overs, as he showed during the T20I series at the death.

With a base price of just INR 50 lakh, he is certain to be highly sought-after but KKR’s vast purse means that they can go all out for him and ensure that they have Morne Morkel’s replacement lined up.
