#2 Mumbai Indians

Mumbai Indians is one team that hasn't shied away from spending big bucks on players at the auction. The team is known to buy their preferred player at any cost at the auction. And looking at their last year's performance they will definitely need to spend big amount of money at the auction this time around.
After failing to reach the playoffs in IPL 2018, Mumbai Indians has released quite a few players for next season. One of the major reasons for their poor performance last season was their unstable middle-order. With Duminy already being released and Pollard's form being uncertain, Hetmyer can be handy for the franchise.
The Guyanese player has the ability to clear the fence at ease and on his day he can destroy any bowling attack in the world. If Mumbai Indians are successful in buying Hetmyer, he can form an explosive middle-order along with Rohit Sharma and the Pandya brothers.
