Umran Malik celebrating after taking a wicket
Umran Malik was at his fastest as he bowled the fastest delivery of the 2022 edition IPL 157 km/h vs Rovman Powell of Delhi Capitals.
Though there was monstrous pace behind the delivery, Powell hit it for a boundary.
This delivery is the second fastest bowler in the history of IPL. Shaun Tait is at number one, he bowled 157.71.
Earlier, in SRH’s clash with CSK, which was marked by M S DhoniReturning to his captaincy, Malik bowled twice at 154 km/h. The Srinagar pacer picked up the pace in the 10th and 19th overs, bowling Ruturaj Gaikwad and skipper Dhoni. Malik finished the match with figures of 4-0-48-0.
The mantra for Umran seems simple. Speed, speed and bounce. He is bowling fast, attacking the stumps and showing great control over his line and length.
Not many things can compare to the joy of watching batsmen intimidating raw pace on the cricket field. Young fast bowler Malik, is making IPL an even more enjoyable experience with his raw pace that is shaking the spine of the opposition batsmen.
Later Hyderabad sold him Rs. 4 crores, he has been one of the successful stars of the season.
