The young leg-spinner from Bharatpur, Rajasthan, was bought by Mumbai Indians for ₹1.9 crores, after being a part of Rising Pune Supergiants in 2017. With a dearth of quality spinners the MI-setup, Rahul Chahar is expected to lead their spin attack from the front.

The 18-year-old has played 7 T20s so far, picking up eight wickets at a miser economy of 6.95. He has a big task up his sleeves to contain the opposition batsmen in the middle-overs on batting-friendly Wankhede wicket, where they play most of their matches.
