The tearaway quick picked up all five wickets that Sunrisers Hyderabad took on the night.

Beats the bat and a faint deflection off the back leg onto middle and off stump halfway up. Fired on a good length, [David] Miller goes for a big heave over the leg side and instead of hearing bat on ball, it's the harsh and unmistakable sound of ball on timber! It was going to take something electric to remove Saha and Malik provides that by lighting up the stumps before Saha can jam the bat down in time while trying to back away to access the off side. He is on top of the world. Malik bowls the bouncer, Pandya is clearly late on it, and the top edge goes to that fine third man. He claimed all five wickets Sunrisers Hyderabad took on the night, finishing with figures of 4-0-25-5 in a game in which both teams scored 190-plus.

By the end of his spell of 4-0-25-5 on Wednesday night, Malik had Wankhede Stadium on its feet, the ovation accompanied by chants of “Umran, Umran” and ...

In the IPL particularly, Jasprit Bumrah is known for his stinging yorkers, England’s Jofra Archer for his awkward bouncers. Mentored earlier by former India player Irfan Pathan and currently based in Jammu, Malik entered the IPL system as a net bowler at Sunrisers and was drafted in as a Covid replacement for T Natarajan last year. Speed and accuracy have been standout aspects of Malik’s bowling this IPL, the batsmen getting done in by sheer, raw, unplayable pace. “Uparwala dalva-de toh daal denge, Inshallah (I can if the Almighty wills it),” he said. Sunil Gavaskar said Malik should be on the England tour later this month for the one-off Test. The hard-to-please former England batsman Kevin Pietersen was smiling and shaking his head. Four of his five victims were bowled, the fifth — Gujarat Titans captain Hardik Pandya, no less — was too late on a bouncer.

Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) pacer Umran Malik breathed fire with the ball in his side's clash against Gujarat Titans (GT) at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on ...

It was a brilliant yorker from the youngster who clocked a stunning 153 kmph which rocked Saha's stumps to send him packing. Saha was batting on 68 and was looking in great touch but Malik outdid him with his sensational pace. The 22-year-old didn't stop there and continued to impress with his rapid pace as he troubled the GT batters.

Malik's delivery to get rid of Wriddhiman Saha, who struck 68 off 38 balls, was clocked at 152.8 kph. Malik now has 15 wickets in eight matches at an ...

He bowls at 150kmph consistently, and nobody else is doing that in the world right now, maybe Lockie Ferguson is the other guy who does it, but they are very different bowlers. But from an Indian point of view, he is the only guy that consistently bowls over 145-150kmph every single ball, so he will play for India. But how India manages him is completely up to them,” SRH fast bowling coach Dale Steyn had told Sportstar . Malik's delivery to get rid of Wriddhiman Saha, who struck 68 off 38 balls, was clocked at 152.8 kph.

IPL 2022: Senior Congress leader P Chidambaram was impressed by Umran Malik's stunning display against Gujarat Titans.

He and Bumrah bowling in tandem will terrify the Angrez!" he had tweeted. The sheer pace and aggression is a sight to behold. It was Malik's first five-wicket haul in the Indian Premier League (IPL), and his display further amplified calls for him to be fast-tracked into the national team, especially with a T20 World Cup coming up in Australia later this year.

Umran Malik has been constantly clocking the 150 kmph mark on the speed gun. Sunrisers Hyderabad ...

25-year-old Rajasthan Royals pacer Kuldeep Sen, who played a huge role in his side's 29-run win over Royal Challengers Bangalore on Tuesday evening, feels he is on the right path and will soon be hitting the 150 kmph mark. Every time I came to bowl, I thought of hitting hard lengths.” "In the IPL, a lot of batsmen get accustomed to playing sheer pace, so I hope that he adds a little bit more to his armoury later on.

Rahul Tewatia and Rashid Khan smashed Marco Jansen for 25 runs in the final over to take the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) home.

He (Rashid) has done it already in this tournament, and he has done it again. The Titans came up trumps, but SRH pacer Umran Malik hogged the headlines after he picked up a five-wicket haul. “It was a fantastic game of cricket that ebbed and flowed throughout the 40 overs, it's a game of very fine margins.

Four of the pacer's five wickets came when he shattered the batter's stumps and Umran Malik lit up the IPL once again with his sheer pace.

The Wankhede Stadium crowd chanted his name in unison, enthralled by the talent and pace of the youngster from J&K. There was a similar reaction on Twitter as well, as fans, pundits and even rival teams commended his achievement on Wednesday night. But it was still the performance of the 22-year-old that stood out and got social media buzzing, as he took his first five-for - all the five wickets that the Titans lost in their run chase. The raw, unplayable pace of Umran Malik once again lit up the Indian Premier League, despite his Sunrisers Hyderabad team losing by five wickets to the Gujarat Titans in a thrilling contest at the Wankhede Stadium on Wednesday.

ESPNcricinfo experts Vettori and Lynn feel the Sunrisers seamer should be fast-tracked into the squad for the T20 World Cup.

"In the subcontinent, you are used as a net bowler, you are going on tours and things like that. I am reflecting on my conversation with Shane Bond and the fact that he thought the more you bowled, the slower you got. Next ball was in the slot, which Pandya timed nicely for a four. Sunrisers changed their approach quickly and started utilising Malik solely in the middle overs (7-16) where batting teams are starting to tilt the balance. You can see the excitement factor, brings a bit of X-factor." That's exceptional pace, that's a rarity that we haven't seen I suppose consistently since the likes of [Brett] Lee, Shoaib Akhtar or Shaun Tait. So to see that is a huge part of the game now.
