#11 Jasprit Bumrah - Mumbai Indians (2013, 2015, 2017)
Jasprit Bumrah, without any hint of doubt, is the biggest talent unearthed by the Indian Premier League. When the lethal fast bowler was an unknown commodity, John Wright, former Indian coach, who then with the Mumbai Indians discovered Bumrah and roped him into the side before the 2013 season.
Mumbai Indians had won three leagues since Bumrah joined the Mumbai-based franchise. Bumrah did not play a huge role in Mumbai's success in 2013 and 2015 but his performance in 2017 is definitely the one to remember. In the first three years with Mumbai, he played just 17 matches but under the guidance of Lasith Malinga he evolved into a complete bowler and is now leads the teams bowling unit.
During the 2017 season, he took 20 wickets with an economy rate of 7.35. Bumrah's performances in the last two matches - Qualifier 2 and the Finale - helped Mumbai clinch their third title. In the Qualifier 2 against Kolkata Knight Riders, he picked 3 wickets for just 7 runs in three overs and helped Mumbai restrict KKR to a measly score of just 107 which their batsmen chased down without much effort.
In the final, Mumbai were in all sorts of trouble after the first innings as they could post just 129 runs in the first innings. Even with a paltry total on board, the Mumbai bowlers inspired Jasprit Bumrah and Jasprit Bumrah ensured that their side ended on the right side. Bumrah picked up the wickets of Rahul Tripathi and MS Dhoni to help his side win the title by just 1 run.
