Tell me any one bowler who bowls more than 150 (kmph) and isn't playing for the country," Harbhajan said, while going gaga over the Sunrisers Hyderabad speed gun at a promotional event for the T20 World Cup Down Under in Australia in October-November. The retired tweaker, who took 417 Test wickets in 103 Tests, and 269 wickets in 236 ODIs, wants Malik, who's taken 15 wickets with his lightning speed in IPL 2022, to partner pace ace Jasprit Bumrah for Team India in the T20 World Cup later this year. "So I think, it is a great, great thing and he will inspire many youngsters to take up this game, the way he has come from and what he is doing in the IPL, he's been unbelievable. I don't know whether he will be selected or not, but if I was part of the selection committee, I would have given him a go ahead (for his selection). Malik should be the partner with Jasprit Bumrah when India plays in Australia (in the T20 World Cup)," recommended Harbhajan.
