WATCH: Umran Malik's Fiery Triple Wicket-Maiden 20th Over
PBKS vs SRH IPL 2022: Umran Malik has continued to impress with each match with his sheer pace and accuracy. The young pace gun yet again displayed his abilities as he took three wickets while bowling the ultimate over the innings, without giving away a run.
Punjab Kings were at 151/6 in 19 overs after being put in to bat first, and Kagiso Rabada 0* & Odean Smith 13* were at the crease for Punjab. West Indies all-rounder was on the strike as the over started and played the first delivery dot.
Smith was beaten by pace on the second delivery as he tried to heave a short length delivery across the line, managing a thick top edge. Umran Malik completed an easy catch as he dismissed Odean Smith caught & bowled, in a way similar to Jitesh Sharma's dismissal by the same bowler.
Rahul Chahar came out to bat and the first delivery he faced produced no run. On the next delivery, Umran Malik cleaned up Rahul Chahar on the very next delivery with a full & quick delivery. Chahar tried to clear his leg and put it away but missed it completely and went for a 2-ball duck.
As Vaibhav Arora came out to bat, he was greeted with a fiery full delivery by the 22-year old pacer and was cleaned up for a golden duck. On the last delivery, even though Umran failed to complete the hat-trick, Arshdeep Singh was run out while trying to steal a single after missing a length delivery on outside off. This over produced 4 wickets without a run, inflicting excellence from the young Jammu pacer.
