When it comes to choosing between the two, former Australia pacer Brett Lee has voted for Umran, believing the 22-year-old should be in India’s World Cup squad. Brett Lee talked about Umran malik’s speed. He bowls 150. He said when you have the best car in the world, and you leave it in the garage, then what’s the point of having that car? Umran Malik should be picked for the Indian team for the World cup.
Lee also said he is raw; he is young but he bowls at 150. Getting him into the team will be a boon on the Australian pitches. It is always different one bowls 150 and malik has a good speed.
Umran Malik will not be seen playing in Australia as the cricketer is facing some visa problems. He has only played 3 T20Is for India and rested in extras. That also shows that the team management feels that Malik is not ready. Lee also quoted Bumrah’s injury is a huge blow to the team.
