IPL 2018: 5 possible replacements for Mumbai Indians' Pat Cummins

It was his lacklustre show in his last IPL season with Gujarat Lions that possibly cost him a direct entry into the tournament this year

The 27-year-old Australian fast bowler had a Rs. 2 crore base price but went unsold. His vast experience in IPL- that in which he has 59 wickets in six seasons -makes him one of the ideal replacements for Cummins.

The left-arm bowler possesses a host of cutters and is good with slower balls too. However, it was his lacklustre show in his last IPL season with Gujarat Lions that possibly cost him a direct entry into the tournament this year.

Overall, the Australian has played in 159 T20 matches and has taken 176 wickets at an economy of 7.94. He has been a hot property in the Big Bash League too.
