Pakistani pacer wants to break Umran Malik’s fastest delivery record of 156kph in PSL season 8
Umran Malik has been a sensation ever since he made his Indian T20 League debut in the 2021 edition. He made an impression straightaway in the three matches that he played in 2021 for the Hyderabad franchise. He is known for his ferocious pace. Malik took 22 wickets in 14 games in the 2022 edition of the Indian T20 League under the mentorship of Dale Steyn.
He has also touched 156 kph on the speed gun and is the fastest Indian pacer at present. Umran has also gained some traction across the border from Pakistan as Zaman Khan, who plays for the Lahore Qalandars in the Pakistan Super League, made a sensational comment and said that he will break Umran’s record come the PSL season 8.
I care about performances – Zaman Khan ahead of upcoming PSL Season
“I will break the record of Umran Malik’s fastest ball in this Pakistan Super League edition In Shaa Allah,” said the pacer. “If you talk about pace… I don’t really care about pace. I care about performances. It’s the performance that matters. Your pace is natural to you,” He told the media in an interaction with paktv. tv on their YouTube channel.
Umran has played eight ODIs and T20Is for India and picked up 24 wickets for the national side. On the other hand, Zaman is an uncapped player and is yet to don the green jersey for Pakistan. He has played seven list A games and also starred in 30 T20s in domestic cricket.
Pakistan is known for producing fast-bowlers in their country. The Men in Green have had great fast bowlers in their history such as Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, Shoaib Akthar and others. They have great fast bowlers at present as well in the firm of Naseem Shah, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Haris Rauf, Shahnawaz Dahani and the like.
Pakistan and India have had some great clashes over the years and it remains to be seen whether these two fast bowlers in the form of Umran and Zaman can face off against each other in a mouth-watering India and Pakistan clash. The villages of the two bowlers are located in Kashmir and are not far off from each other.
