IPL 2018: 5 Players Mumbai Indians should pursue for the 2019 season

#3 Basil Thampi

Thampi and Bumrah would form a potent bowling combination

Basil Thampi is one of the best bowlers in domestic cricket in India and is a part of an impressive bowling attack in Sunrisers Hyderabad. He is among the best T20 bowlers in the country and will be a great addition to any team.

Hyderabad has plenty of ammunition in fast bowling with the likes of Bhuvaneshwar Kumar, Siddarth Kaul, Sandeep Sharma and T Natarajan in their fold. With such an impressive line up of fast bowlers, the team is unlikely to give a chance to Thampi in the absence of any injuries.

Thampi is a brilliant bowler in both the middle overs as well as in the death overs. Mumbai has a place for a third pace bowler and if they could get the services of Thampi it would help the side perform much better.
