“I think so [on playing Umran Malik]. I’m playing him. I’m gonna be calling that Test match, and he better be playing,” Pietersen told host broadcaster Star Sports after Malik picked up his maiden five-wicket haul in IPL 2022 against GT.
“Chuck him at the deep end. Chuck him in now. You can see he loves this. This is a huge, top of the table clash. He’s getting big wickets and he’s getting them out well. He has control, look at these yorkers he’s bowling. Just have a look at some of the great sides, some of the great Australian sides that we’ve played against, [they had] the Brett Lees, the Mitchell Johnsons. This guy is a Test bowler, no one likes to face this [pace],” he added.
Former India captain Sunil Gavaskar was quick to inform Petersen that Umran might not make it to the playing XI in presence of Mohd Shami & Jasprit Bumrah.
“He might not play in the XI because India have got [Mohammed] Shami, they’ve got [Jasprit] Bumrah, and they’ve got Mohammad Siraj also, and there’s Umesh Yadav. But just travelling with this group, sharing the dressing room with Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli. Just look what is going to happen to him. So, yeah take him,” commentator Gavaskar told of Umran Malik.
