#2. Lasith Malinga
Malinga is the most successful bowler in the history of IPL. He is back into his groove and played a great role in helping Mumbai Indians win their fourth title last season. The news was a surprise to the cricket fans at the time.
But he will not take part in IPL 2020 because of ‘personal reasons’ and will be with his family back in Sri Lanka. He has been associated with Mumbai since 2009 and his presence in the dressing room will definitely be missed.
Meanwhile, Mumbai announced Australian pace bowler James Pattinson as his replacement. The 30-year old will make his debut in IPL this year.
