Mitchell McClenaghan could be included among the most underrated players in the history of the league. The New Zealand speedster bagged numerous games for MI in his four-year association with the franchise. In his team’s second title triumph in 2015, he supported Mumbai’s bowling spearhead Lasith Malinga with 18 scalps in 12 contests at an economy of 8.21.

Emboldened by his previous bowling display, the pacer again impressed in 2016. This time, he grabbed 17 wickets in 14 matches at an economy of 8.17 and ended up as the leading wicket-taker for his team in the season. However, despite his superb bowling shows, his team’s campaign couldn't advance beyond the league round.

Rohit Sharma and his men claimed another IPL trophy in the 2017 installment with their close one-run victory over Steve Smith-led Rising Pune Supergiant (RPS) in the final. Throughout the competition, McClenaghan again looked consistent and came out as one of the strike bowlers for Mumbai. The MI speedster chipped in with 19 wickets in 14 games at an economy of 9.38 as he contributed to his team’s fabulous title win. Currently, he is the fourth-highest wicket-taker of all time for MI with 71 wickets in 56 matches at an economy of 8.49.
