What a comedy gold advice by Sunil Gavaskar on encountering Umran Malik: IPL 2022

Umran Mallik has been in blistering form for Sunrisers Hyderabad in the ongoing Indian premier league [IPL] 2022 and currently third in purple cap race with 15 wickets.

Speaking on Star Sports, he quipped, “Take a single and go to the non-striker’s end”.

Gavaskar also asked batters to cover all three stumps.

“Don’t give him a sight of your stumps. Cover all three stumps so that when he runs in to bowl, he has got to see where is the off stump, where is the leg stump”, he said.

Against, CSK, however, Umran Malik had a rare off-day, despite registering the fastest delivery of the season, clocking 154kmph not once, but twice.

The pacer was taken for 48 runs in his four overs and failed to get a wicket as CSK emerged victorious by 13 runs.

So far this season, Umran Malik has taken 15 wickets and he also bowled the fastest delivery of the season against CSK after clocking a speed of 154kmph.

SRH are currently fourth in the IPL 2022 points table with 10 points from nine games (including five wins and four defeats).
