Mitchell Santner: The Ice-Cool Kiwi Skipper Mitchell Santner has long been recognized as a premier white-ball specialist, known for his ability to stifle batters with subtle variations in pace and length. After winning two IPL titles during a storied seven-year stint with CSK, the “Kiwi Maestro” made a high-profile move to the Mumbai Indians in 2025. Santner’s leadership qualities reached a new peak on the global stage when he captained New Zealand to a runner-up finish at the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy. Beyond his clinical left-arm orthodox spin, Santner is a dangerous lower-order batter capable of delivering high-impact cameos, making him a vital “utility” asset for any T20 squad.
