Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) fast bowler, Umran Malik failed to take a wicket in the ongoing match against Delhi Capitals (DC) at the Brabourne stadium in Mumbai. However, he was at his ferocious best in terms of his express pacer as he broke his own record of the fastest delivery bowled in this season of the IPL.
Umran Malik managed to deliver a bowl at 157 kmph on the fourth delivery of the final over of the Delhi innings. Unfortunately for him, it was hit for a boundary by Rovman Powell, who played an unbeaten of 67 off 35 balls. Malik was taken for plenty at the Brabourne Stadium as he pitched it short and was constantly clobbered for boundaries. However, on most of the deliveries of that over, Malik clocked a speed of more than 150 kmph
