Sam Curran broke headlines by becoming the most expensive foreign player of last season, after being sold to Kings XI Punjab for a hefty ₹7.2 crores. This young prodigy from England got a hattrick against Delhi Capitals and picked up ten wickets in nine matches. He scored 95 runs to his tally at a strike rate of 172.72 in IPL 2019.

Curran, who can bowl left-arm fast-medium, can also save his side from middle-order collapses. He is an emerging talent who has struck big in the international scene, turning into a valuable player in T20 cricket. Royal Challengers Bangalore require such calibre in their squad who can be a big-hitter and a death bowling option at the same time.

Mumbai Indians are well known for giving breakthroughs to such young talents by providing them multiple opportunities to shine. Curran can act as a finisher along with the Pandya brothers, and can also bowl at the right lengths to provide crucial wickets for his team.

With Sam Curran expected to only get better, RCB and MI could heavily invest to gain the services of this Englishman.
