IPL 2017, Qualifier 2, KKR vs MI: 5 players to watch out for

#2 Jasprit Bumrah

Bumrah has been lethal in the death overs

With his lethal toe-crushers and wily slower deliveries, Jasprit Bumrah has been Mumbai Indians’ go-to man during vital moments of a game. With Lasith Malinga not being in the best of forms, Bumrah has been entrusted to bowl during the death overs of a contest.

With 15 wickets at an economy of 7.77, he has lived up to his reputation of stifling the opposition down. The lanky pacer has looked out of sorts in patches, but overall he has been one of the main reasons why Mumbai finished at the top of the ladder in the league stage.

Even in Mumbai’s last encounter against Rising Pune Supergiants, he bowled three miserly overs before being launched into by M.S Dhoni in the final over of the innings. Bumrah has to rise to the occasion for Mumbai to qualify for the final.
