2. Ability to bowl in the powerplay and at the death

One of Arshdeep's most valuable qualities is his ability to operate with the new ball in the powerplay and then return to bowl in the death overs. He has grown into a reliable new-ball bowler since IPL 2022, playing a minimum of 14 games every season, and he has received wide recognition for his yorkers and his control at the death.

Mumbai Indians' bowling attack has leaned heavily on Jasprit Bumrah, who was their highest wicket-taker in both IPL 2024 with 20 wickets and IPL 2022 with 15 wickets. Adding a bowler who can share the new ball and also close out innings would reduce the burden on Bumrah and give MI a genuine two-pronged pace threat across all phases.
