P Chidambaram Blown Away By "Umran Malik Hurricane", Says BCCI Should...
NDTV
IPL 2022: Senior Congress leader P Chidambaram was impressed by Umran Malik's stunning display against Gujarat Titans.
Against Gujarat Titans on Wednesday, Umran Malik put on a stunning solo display, picking up all the five wickets SunRisers Hyderabad got in the match, but it was not enough to stop Hardik Pandya's team from registering yet another dramatic win to reinforce their position on top of the table. 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. The BCCI should give him an exclusive coach and quickly induct him into the national team We need him in India colours asap. What a phenomenal talent. Blood him before he burns out! Take him to England for the Test match greentop. He and Bumrah bowling in tandem will terrify the Angrez! #UmranMalik https://t.co/T7yLb1JapM
Among those who were taken in by Malik's raw pace was senior Congress leader and former Finance Minister P Chidambaram.
"The Umran Malik hurricane is blowing away everything in its way. The sheer pace and aggression is a sight to behold. After today's performance there can be no doubt that he is the find of this edition of IPL," he tweeted.
