Much like Mahmood, Mills’ most important weapon is his pace. The left-arm seamer has the ability to constantly bowl in the mid-90s, a skill that is effective in any form of cricket, anywhere in the world. Along with that, the 27-year-old bowls an excellent slower ball, which can prove very useful as a contrast to his electric pace. The Sussex bowler only plays in the shortest form of the game nowadays, as prolonged fitness troubles mean that he isn’t able to get through long spells of bowling.

Mills also brings the ability to change up the angle, being a left armer, as well as being more than capable to come around the wicket to right-handers as well. Mills has played in the IPL before, having spent the 2018 season with the Royal Challengers Bangalore, where he played in five matches, taking five wickets. In the right bowling attack, Mills could be an excellent buy for any IPL side.
