Umran Malik has been one of the standouts in the ongoing IPL 2022 season. The tearaway pacer has made life very difficult for the opposition batters, consistently flummoxing them with sheer speed. Umran Malik's performances in IPL 2022 has led to calls for him to be fast-tracked into the Indian team. The youngster has been on fire for SunRisers Hyderabad, taking 21 wickets in 13 matches at an average of 20. SRH batting coach and cricket legend Brian Lara backed Umran Malik to soon play international cricket. He also said that the Indian reminds him a lot of West Indies pacer Fidel Edwards.

The ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season has seen the rise of many young Indian pacers and fans in the country are pretty excited on the prospect of having great depth in the pace bowling ranks. The likes of Umran Malik, Arshdeep Singh, Mohsin Khan and Yash Dayal have impressed one and all and it would be interesting to see whether some of these get a go in the upcoming T20I series against South Africa.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar has so far picked 12 wickets in 13 matches in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022. While there are many other bowlers who have taken more wickets than him in the franchise league, Kumar's economy - 7.20 - is very impressive. Playing for SunRisers Hyderabad against Mumbai Indians on Tuesday, the veteran pacer bowled a wicket-maiden in the 19th over with MI needing 19 off the last two overs. Kumar's show thus played a crucial role in SRH defeating five-time champions MI by three runs.
Arjun Tendulkar, a left-arm pacer in the Mumbai Indians squad, has been bowling great at the nets.

In a recent video, which was uploaded on MI's social media handles on Thursday, Arjun can be seen bowling precision yorkers.
Parveen Sultana was worried about her boxer-daughter Nikhat Zareen's future. For any middle-class family, getting their daughters married is of primary importance and Nikhat's parents were no different. In fact, Parveen disliked her daughter's keen interest in boxing and tried to convince her to give up the sport. But for a free spirit like Nikhat, giving up her passion was not an option. But life in the lanes of Nizamabad, where she hails from, about 200 km from Hyderabad, was tough. There were no easy pickings and the rough, uncut diamond needed polish after Nikhat chose boxing over athletics just to prove a point - that she would one day become a world champion.
