Mumbai Indians: Hardik Pandya
Hardik Pandya has been out of international cricket for long now. However, he was in terrific form when he came out to bat in DY Patil Cup. Hardik, if he can replicate that form, then Mumbai Indians fans are in for a ride. His variations can be helpful in UAE conditions as well.
Harbhajan Singh (40 Years, 271 Days)
Harbhajan Singh has proven to be one of the most successful spinners in the cash-rich T20 league. He is one of the exciting prospects for KKR this season.
Jasprit Bumrah
India's number one bowler has been the backbone of Mumbai's bowling for a few years now. He is second on the list with 27 wickets in 14 matches.
His closest competitor is Kagiso Rabada, and IPL finals will finally decide who gets the Purple Cap by the end of the season.
Faf du Plessis

He has taken many splendid catches in the entire season.
Suryakumar Yadav
Suryakumar played a defining innings of unbeaten 71 runs from 54 balls against Chennai in the Qualifier 1 and took the match away from them.
