Cricket News sort by Umran Malik

Experienced Pakistan wicketkeeper-batter Kamran Akmal reckons that India should find a way to accommodate tearaway fast bowler Umran Malik in their playing eleven. The 23-year-old Jammu and Kashmir pacer is part of the Indian team for the ongoing one-day series against New Zealand. However, he was not picked in the playing XI for the first two matches

There was an element of surprise when India decided to go in with all-rounder Shardul Thakur ahead of fast bowler Umran Malik in the first one-dayer against New Zealand in Hyderabad. The latter had done pretty well in the recent matches that he had played until he was rested.

Kuldeep Sen and Umran Malik have been ruled out from the ICC T20 World Cup event in Australia due to visa issues. BCCI has replaced the two with Mohammed Shami and Mohammed Siraj.
