Indian Premier League (IPL) has always been a platform for youngsters to showcase their talent over the years. Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) fast bowler, Umran Malik is one such youngster who has been impressive in the ongoing season and bowled well in a game against Punjab Kings (PBKS) taking three wickets in the final over of the first innings and didn’t concede a run as well.

After winning their last three games, SRH expected to start well against PBKS as they won the toss and asked the latter to bat first. SRH bowlers responded well as they reduced the opposition to 61/4 early in the innings. However, Liam Livingstone was playing well at one end and scored 60 runs from 33 balls.

Livingstone and Shahrukh Khan stitched a partnership together and the team was set to post a total above 160. However, death bowling from SRH and especially the last over from Umran Malik restricted the opponents to a below-par total of 151. Malik bowled a maiden over and scalped three wickets to finish the proceedings.

Umran Malik bowled the second delivery of the over to Odean Smith short and quick. Smith top-edged it and Malik settled under the skier to complete a caught and bowled dismissal.

Then Umran Malik dismissed Rahul Chahar and Vaibhav Arora on the fourth and fifth delivery of the over with two fiery deliveries on the stumps to uproot them. Malik was on the verge of a hat-trick but Arshdeep Singh blocked the delivery and denied it. The batter was dismissed via run-out and the brilliance by Malik restricted opponents to 151.
