Mumbai Indians can bid MASSIVE amount for Yuzvendra Chahal and Washington Sundar, former Indian cricketer predicts

New Delhi: Former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra believes that in the upcoming auction, the Mumbai Indians team will bid heavily to strengthen their bowling line-up. Because they have a good batting attack, Aakash Chopra has predicted that Mumbai Indians will bid for Yuzvendra Chahal as well as Washington Sundar in the auction. Mumbai would like to strengthen its spin bowling attack. Chahal made his IPL debut playing for Mumbai in 2011 and was part of the team for three years.

Aakash Chopra said, “Their batting has become strong once again. The problem is that they have only one bowler. They need more bowlers. Last time, their condition was like this because of bowling. They used to score 225 to 250 runs, but also used to give away the same number of runs.”

He further said, “They were too dependent on batting and scoring more than 20-40 runs every time was a bit too much. They can have a full Indian batting lineup and foreign bowling lineup, which can also include some Indian spinners, they will definitely go for Yuzvendra Chahal. I don’t know if they will take him or not. They will probably want to keep Washington Sundar.”

Mumbai Indians have retained five players Jasprit Bumrah (18 crores), Suryakumar Yadav (16.35 crores), Hardik Pandya (16.35 crores), Rohit Sharma (16.30 crores), Tilak Verma (8 crores).
