IPL 2020 - Rating the all-rounders of all 8 teams

#2 Mumbai Indians

The Pandya brothers have remained a pivotal part of the Mumbai Indians.

All-rounders: Anukul Roy, Jayant Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Krunal Pandya, Kieron Pollard, Sherfane Rutherford, Prince Balwant Rai Singh, and Nathan Coulter-Nile

The defending champions Mumbai Indians retained 17 players ahead of the auction and retained their core of prestigious all-rounders in the Pandya brothers and Kieron Pollard in the squad. MI also signed Sherfane Rutherford in the trade with Delhi Capitals, while Jayant Yadav and Anukul Roy got retained in the line-up as well.

The sensational Hardik Pandya has gone on to become India's formidable all-rounder from his successful stint in the IPL. With an astonishing strike rate of 191.42 last season averaging 44.46, Pandya can take the game away single-handedly for his team and cross the winning margin from difficult situations. Hardik's elder brother, Krunal Pandya, has also grabbed wickets with his off-spins with a career average of 7.16, and can also provide depth in the middle-order.

MI's veteran all-rounder Kieron Pollard can also tonk the ball hard and also provide a couple of overs for the side. Pollard has been a vital player for MI to win four titles in the IPL. Sherfane Rutherford will be hoping to continue his form of Global T20 League and Carribean Premier League (CPL) for the Indians.

Nathan Coulter-Nile is an exciting addition to the side at ₹8 crores if Pollard gets injured mid-season. Although Coulter-Nile has not been able to make a name for himself in the IPL, the Australian can contribute both with the bat and ball given on the terms in Pollard fails to deliver consistently. The likes of Anukul Roy, Jayant Yadav, and Prince Balwant Rai Singh will be hoping to gain the attention of the management and cement their spot in the playing XI.

Mumbai Indians have some of the best T20 all-rounders in the side with their reliable replacements. They have plenty of options to choose from with the Pandya brothers and Pollard, leading the charge. Coulter-Nile will be the one to watch out for as a replacement to either Pollard/Lasith Malinga.

On the other hand, the team has loaded plenty of options in the Indian all-rounders' list that allows them to have backups in case of injuries.
