IPL 2022: Sunrisers Hyderabad, which is considered to be the underdog at the beginning of the 15th season of the Indian Premier League i.e. IPL 2022, has made a great comeback after the defeat in the first two matches. Hyderabad has scored a hat-trick of victory in the match played against Kolkata on Friday. The bowlers have played an important role in this victory of the team. In young fast bowler, Umran Malik is also included. The team’s bowling coach Dale Steyn is very impressed with Umran’s superb bowling. Along with this, he is also praising this young bowler a lot. Apart from him, the head coach of the team, Tom Moody, has also given some big statements for him.
Young speed star is proving to be very expensive this season
The 22-year-old Srinagar-based bowler Umran has been impressed with his bowling in this Indian Premier League (IPL) so far. He has consistently bowled at a speed of 145 to 150 kmph during this period. However, this season he has also looted a lot of runs. The right-handed speedster has so far conceded 173 runs to take 5 wickets in 5 matches he has played this season. But, despite this, the team’s head coach Tom Moody also wants this young fast bowler from Jammu and Kashmir to express himself openly.
Tom Moody wants to see Umran Malik taking wickets
The team’s head coach Tom Moody is not at all worried about the owner’s spending runs. He believes that, when you bowl at 150 kmph in this format, you cannot expect that you will not score runs. Moody said that he gives a lot of runs behind the wicket. But it is not like he is being smashed into the ground or shots are being fired against him from over cover.
“So you have to accept his style of bowling,” the coach said after their seven-wicket win over Kolkata Knight Riders on Friday. His role is to express himself by running and bowling his style. “We accept that the way he bowls, he will score runs but we want to see him take wickets,” he said.
