The 35-year old is the leading wicket-taker in the history of IPL, and Mumbai is very lucky to have his services in full flow. In the last league where Mumbai knocked KKR out of the IPL, he scalped 3/35 off his 4 overs, including that of the dangerous Andre Russell to set the tone for the team in an important encounter. He is still one of the best death-overs specialists and his variations are a huge threat to the opposition batsmen. His experience would be very crucial in the playoff stages for the Mumbai Indians.
