Also, Indian middle order batsmanSaurabh Tiwary, who has been a part of the team before, right arm Indian Pacer, Mohsin Khan and all-rounder Prince Balwant Rai Singh and Maharashtra pacerDigvijay Deshmukh joined the team after being purchased for the base prices of 50L, 20L and, 20L respectively.

ESPNcricinfo' wrote "LikeChennai Super Kings, Mumbai Indians also had a limited money, which they made good use for purchasing the players. WhenMalinga's backup took the team toCoulter Nile, thenChris Lynn was included as a replacement forEvin Lewis. It will be interesting to see how the Mumbai team uses new young domestic players. Only the spin department is a concern for the team."[5]
