This year's IPL Auction will witness a lot of international players getting sold.

#3 Mustafizur Rahman

Mustafizur Rahman (Mumbai Indians, 2018)

Mustafizur Rahman had a breakout debut season in the Indian Premier League (IPL) with the title-winning Sunrisers Hyderabad back in 2016. Fizz grabbed 17 wickets in 16 matches at an economical average of 6.90 to get adjudged as the 'Emerging Player of the Tournament' with the best figures of 3/16.

His IPL stint made him a matured bowler more than ever as he went on to represent Bangladesh on several occasions. He could not consistently perform in the next two seasons of IPL due to his injury. However, Rahman is still known as a specialist in the death overs with his off-cutters and swinging yorkers.

Mustafizur could be a perfect addition to the likes of Rajasthan Royals or Royal Challengers Bangalore. This left-arm pacer could fit as a death-bowling option by taking crucial wickets.
