3. Sandeep Sharma

Since Jasprit Bumrah is an Indian player and Mumbai Indians already have a maximum number of 8 overseas players in their squad, only an Indian player can replace Bumrah in the squad. Sandeep Sharma will be a good choice for the same. Sharma went unsold in IPL 2023 auction at a price of Rs. 50 lakh.

Last season, Sharma played 5 games for Punjab Kings and picked 2 wickets. However, he had a decent economy rate of just 7.65. He has a good experience in Indian Premier League. The right-arm pacer has played 104 games in IPL and picked 114 wickets at an average of 26.33 and an economy rate of 7.77.
