Watch: Umran Malik’s scorcher to dismiss Bhanuka Rajapaksa | Cricket News – Times of India

NEW DELHI: There are a few better sights in cricket than a fast bowler steaming in to hurl down pacy deliveries. And in Umran Malik, India have discovered a tearaway quick who sends down fast balls at alarming regularity.
In the 1st T20I against Sri Lanka in Mumbai on Tuesday, Umran had already broken Jasprit Bumrah‘s record of bowling the fastest ball by an Indian by dismissing skipper Dasun Shanaka with a 155kph scorcher.

And on Thursday in the 2nd T20I in Pune, Umran unleashed another quick delivery to shatter the stumps of Sri Lanka’s No. 3 batsman Bhanuka Rajapaksa.
Bowling from round the wicket to the left-handed Rajapaksa, Umran sent down a 147kph delivery that skidded through from back of a length and came in, and Rajapaksa was caught in a terrible position looking to play against the angle. Rajapaksa was cramped for room as he looked to angle it down to third man but chopped it off the inside edge onto the stumps.

Umran was the pick of the Indian bowlers taking 3/48 off his 4 overs.
Though Sri Lanka won the match by 16 runs to level the series 1-1, Umran is definitely making it a series to remember.
