Team India: The Indian team is currently on a tour of Zimbabwe, where it has to play a five-match T20 series with the host team. The series is going to start from July 6. Many young Indians have been given a chance in this series. But, some have been directly ignored, who were once considered the future of Team India.

In this list, a bowler has been included who was compared to Jaspreet Bumrah and he got his debut at the age of 22. But now the situation has become such that this player is yearning to play a match. At the age of just 24, there is a danger of his career ending. Let's find out who is this bowler?

This young player is being ignored in Team India for a year

  • It is known that all the senior players have been rested for the Zimbabwe series, while a young team has been sent.
  • That means it would not be wrong to call it India's A team. Almost all the youth have got a chance in this team.
  • But Umran Malik has been ignored here. Let us tell you that Umran has not been selected in the Indian team for the last 1 year.
  • His not being selected for India is a very surprising decision.

Umran Malik's career on the verge of ruin at the age of 24

  • This is being said because till last year, Umran Malik remained the first choice for the selectors in the Indian team.
    He was also getting opportunities.
  • He was being given priority in both ODI and T20 formats. But he has not been selected for the last one year.
  • He played his last match for India 1 year ago on 29 July against West Indies.
  • After this match, the team management did not give him a chance again. It was expected that he would get a chance for India in the future.
  • Because the way Umran made his mark in Team India.
    He was being considered a big player of India in the future. He was being compared to fast bowlers like Bumrah, Shoaib Akhtar. But now his career is not having good days.

Umran made a place on the basis of his fast speed

  • It is worth noting that Umran Malik made a place in Team India on the basis of his fast bowling.
  • He bowls at a speed of 157 KMPH. But the biggest drawback in his bowling is that he bowls fast but often deviates from his line length.
  • Because of this, he gives away more runs than necessary.
    But the team management should trust him so that he can add sharpness to the bowling with his speed.
  • Talking about Umran's career, he has played 10 ODIs and 8 T20 matches for India, in which he has taken a total of 13 and 11 wickets respectively.
