Umran Malik, the 22-year-old young pacer from J&K has stunned and amazed everyone with his sensational bowling and raw pace during the 2022 edition of the Indian T20 League. He played for Hyderabad and delivered exceptionally well in the 15th edition of the tournament which compelled the selectors to give him a call for the debut in the national side of the Indian cricket team.
Umran Malik astonished the cricketing fraternity with his amazing skill of bowling 150 kmph constantly. Eventually, he ended up as the fourth-highest wicket-taker in this year’s edition of the Indian T20 League.
Meanwhile, another young pacer is gradually hitting the headlines and he is also from the same state to which Umran Malik belongs. Wasim Bashir, a 22-year-old Pahalgam-born pacer has gone viral over social media for terrorizing the batters with the same intent Umran used to do.
It can be seen in a viral clip on social media that batters are feeling helpless while facing Wasim Bashir. The J&K U-25 pacer is also touching the mark of 150 almost on his every ball.
Here’s the video of Wasim Bashir:

Speaking of Bashir, he is currently in action with the U-25 team of Jammu & Kashmir and has become the talk of the town due to his sensational pace and excellent sharpness in bowling.
It will also be interesting to see which team of the Indian T20 League will bank on Bashir like the way Hyderabad did with Umran during the auction for last year’s edition in 2021. Now, the Indian cricket Board is set to host the mini-auction later this year in December for picking the players ahead of the 2023 edition of the cash-rich Indian league. Talking about Umran, the Hyderabad-based franchise has retained him for the next edition of the Indian T20 League.
