# 1 Yuvraj Singh – Mumbai Indians – Rs.1 Crore

Mumbai Indians were missing a proper No. 5 batsman in their middle order. That was primarily one of the reasons why Rohit Sharma had to come down the order and play in the middle order. With the inclusion of Yuvraj Singh into the scheme of things in the Mumbai Lineup, that worry is now set aside.

It is to be seen whether Rohit will replace Suryakumar Yadav at the opening slot, but the option is now available to the Mumbai team management. Suryakumar Yadav, being the versatile player that he is, can play as the finisher for the team along with Kieron Pollard and Pandya brothers while Rohit Sharma opens with Quinton de Kock/Evin Lewis.

The Mumbai Management had come out in the open to proclaim that getting Yuvraj at Rs.1 Crore was the biggest bargain ever in the IPL history. Considering the experience and quality, Yuvraj possesses, it really was surprising to see that not many other franchises opted to bid for him.

We agree with the Ambanis in this case, Yuvraj Singh at Rs.1 Crore is a real value buy.
