IND vs AUS ODI Series: India’s speed sensation Umran Malik has been making news in international cricket ever since he made his debut. Notably, Umran’s pace is what stands out the most about him, but there are other aspects of his bowling too that makes him an obvious threat to the opposition. In addition to this, former India coach Ravi Shastri sees no reason why the India pacer cannot make it into the final 15. Shastri said that Umran will always be in the mix and stand a chance to break into the World Cup squad. Follow India vs Australia Test LIVE with InsideSport.IN

Speaking of Umran Malik, former India coach Ravi Shastri said, “I think he plays an opportunity more in 50-over cricket than in T20s. And with the amount of cricket that is being played, he will always be in the mix because there could be injuries cropping up and any time.

“There is a deadline to announce your side for the World Cup. The fitness of players will be the key. That’s why this IPL will be crucial to see how they (bowlers) take the load,” said Shastri.

The competition to remain in the Indian team is fierce, so the fast-bowling department. With ODI World Cup approaching, the Indian team line-up looks stacked. Jasprit Bumrah will return soon, and accompanying him with the new ball will be Mohammed Shami. Mohammed Siraj and Arshdeep Singh, with their impressive string of performances, will be knocking on the door as well, while Umran Malik’s speed gives India another option.

Umran has been in the talk ever since his debut. Even though he can leak runs, which is something that every pacer is at risk of, he more often ends up breaking the partnerships. The speedster has inflicted more bowled dismissals than any other mode, which clearly implies that he is not easy to play. But beyond his ability to bowl fast, the 25-year-old tearaway quick has picked up 15 wickets in the last 8 matches, including 2 three-wicket-hauls, and gone wicketless only once.
