Tim David
Five-time champions Mumbai Indians spent big money on buying Jofra Archer, despite his availability concerns, and Singapore big-hitting finisher Tim David in the accelerated round on Sunday.
Despite the fact that Archer is unlikely to play in the upcoming IPL season due to his recovery from elbow injury, it didn't stop MI and Rajasthan Royals in trying to buy him with all guns blazing. Sunrisers Hyderabad even joined in the bid as well, but MI were persistent in getting Archer at any cost and got him for R8 crore despite the pacer not playing any competitive cricket in the last 10 months.
Mumbai were then engaged in a fervent bid for David, a globe-trotting T20 finisher, alongside Lucknow, Kolkata, Delhi and Punjab. Eventually, Mumbai got him on board for a whopping Rs 8.25 crore.
