The Mumbai Indians (MI) have not won a Premier League (IPL) trophy of India in the last five years and will be desperate to change the next season. The IPL 2026 auction will offer you the opportunity to strengthen your team, which already has some world -class players.

The five -time champions arrived at the playoffs in the IPL 2025, but they could not overcome the Punjab Kings in the qualifier 2. Taking into account the defects in their team, they did well to get so far. One of his main concerns was the bowling unit apart from Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Boult.

The Mumbai Indians will seek to reinforce their bowling attack. A Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) rapid bowling player could be on his radar at the IPL 2026 auction.

Spencer Johnson will be on the list of KKR players before the IPL 2026 auction

Spencer Johnson had a torrid time for KKR in the IPL 2025. The Australian pacemaker played four games in the edition, managing to choose only one wickt while giving races at 11.73 RPO.

Kkr dropped him after the initial phase and gave him another chance. All probability, they will release it before the IPL 2026 auction.

Johnson went in INR 2.80 million rupees in the mega auction. Their actions are even lower at this time and may not generate much interest in most franchises. It would make sense that Mumbai’s Indians leave the opportunity to sign it for a low price.

Indians from Mumbai and Spencer Johnson – match made in heaven

If Johnson is on the list of players launched by KKR, there is a good possibility that Mumbai’s Indians are persecuting him at the auction. The association fits a perfect couple for several reasons.

To start, to my love absolutely the pacemakers abroad. If we look at their story, Mitch Johnson, Mitchell McClenaghan and Trent Boult have played important roles in their winning campaigns. They have also had Jason Behrendorff, Reece Topley, Tymal Mills, Marco Jansen, Duan Jansen, Kwena Mhaka and Mustafizur Rahman at different points.

The other factor that makes Johnson and my exciting match is the Wankhede stadium. The home of the Mumbai Indians is one of the best places in the country for rapid bowling players. Red soil launches in this field offer a good rebound and movement for pacemakers, especially with the new ball. There is no doubt that Johnson would feel at home here.

Spencer Johnson 3️⃣ 3️⃣

– The hundred (@thehtheh) August 9, 2023

Now, the 29 -year -old has not lived up to the expectations in the IPL, but has immense potential. He is high, you can click on the mid -140 kmph consistently, you can balance the ball in advance and can nail the Yorkers. It is a complete package whose best is yet to come in India.

After making his national debut T20 at the age of 27, Johnson quickly became a star and won a place in the Australian T20i team. He has also had great success in Big Bash League, The Hundred and the T20 explosion. In his general career of T20, he has 85 WICKETS in 71 appearances in an economy of 7.95.

It is likely that Mumbai Indians free Topley before the auction IPL 2026. They can go for Spencer, which is a much better option. A Down Under Johnson has illuminated the league in my shirt in the past. Maybe it’s time for another to make your own legacy.
