Sunrisers Hyderabad pacer Umran Malik won the 'fastest delivery of the match' award for the 14th consecutive time on Sunday. The pacer achieved this feat after clocking 153.5 kmph in the last league stage match of IPL 2022, between SRH and Punjab Kings, here at the Wankhede Stadium on Sunday. Apart from this, Umran also got his maiden Team India call-up for the upcoming T20I series against South Africa in June 2022.
Veteran wicketkeeper Dinesh Karthik has given some wonderful performances for Royal Challengers Bangalore in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season and this is the main reason behind the 36-year-old earning a call-up to India's squad for the upcoming five-match T20 International (T20I)series against South Africa, beginning June 9 in New Delhi. Former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan congratulated Karthik on being named in the squad, saying it is a "fab story of not giving up hope".
Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma had an underwhelming Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season as he was not able to register even a single half-century. The right-handed batter ended the season with 268 runs in 14 games with his highest score being 48. For the entire season, Rohit averaged just 19.14. Former Team India coach Ravi Shastri feels Rohit does not need a break and he explained his reasons behind it.
Umran Malik, who's rocked the Indian Premier League with his thunderbolts, has earned a much-anticipated call-up to the Indian team for the five-match T20I series against South Africa, which will kick off on June 9 in Delhi. Malik, 22, son of a fruit seller in Jammu, has been generating fearsome pace above 150kmph on a regular basis. His hostile spells for Sunrisers Hyderabad have had batsman hopping, fans cheering and pundits calling for his inclusion in Team India. All-time great Dale Steyn, who's mentoring Malik at SRH, hailed him as a superstar in the making.
