Describing Sunrisers Hyderabad fast bowler Umran Malik as a “gem”, New Zealand bowling great Daniel Vettrori says the youngster’s raw pace generates anxiety among batters and brings an “X-factor” to the game. Vettori, a former New Zealand captain, said Malik was a “rare” talent emerging after the end of era of Brett Lee, Shoaib Akhtar and Shaun Tait.
Vettori said the BCCI should quickly step in and manage Malik’s workload to safeguard his unique talent. “This is a gem here and it’s just how it’s looked after in the next couple of years for Indian cricket and how to get the best out of him. Potentially. It might be the best thing for him coming under the umbrella of the BCCI or the NCA, and they can manage his workloads, because there is a temptation for a player of his pace to keep bowling.”
