IPL 2019: 5 players who were not expected to be retained by their teams, but were retained anyway

#4 Kieron Pollard

Pollard will continue his IPL career with Mumbai

Although Pollard gets to play more than 10 matches every season for Mumbai Indians, he succeeds only in a small percentage of them. That has been the situation since the past few seasons, and it was believed that Mumbai Indians would run out of patience with him.

Pollard was also dismal in the recently concluded India-Windies T20 series, and it was expected that he would play for a different team next year. However, the big West Indian will continue his IPL career with MI in 2019 too.
