IPL 2022: Twitterati in awe as Umran Malik clocks 157 kmph to set a new record of fastest delivery in IPL 15

Umran hurled a delivery clocking 157 kmph in the game against DC.

By Salman Anjum - 05 May, 2022

Sunrisers Hyderabad’s (SRH) Umran Malik was not at his very best in Match 50 of the IPL 2022 against Delhi Capitals (DC), but that didn’t stop the speedster from shattering his own record of the fastest delivery bowled this season.

During the last over of DC’s innings, Umran hurled a delivery clocking 157 kmph to set a new record for this season. It was also the second fastest delivery bowled in the history of IPL, behind Shaun Tait’s 157.71 kmph.

In the 20th over, Umran also clocked the speed of 153 kmph, 154 kmph and 156 kmph. Unfortunately for him, the over went for 20 runs and he returned with the expensive figures of 0 for 52 in his four overs.

Nonetheless, the SRH pace sensation took the cricket fraternity by storm once again with his fiery spell.

Twitterati were in awe of Umran Malik’s raw pace and they showered rich praise on him.

Here are the reactions:

Only Shaun Tait has bowled a faster delivery (157.71 kmph) than Umran Malik in the 15-year history of IPL.

Umran Malik, the faster it comes the quicker it goes. You have amazing raw pace! 157 kph is not a cakewalk!

Get some variations and bowl the right lengths, you'll be a champ!

Can he bowled 160 kph ? #SRHvsDC #UmranMalik pic.twitter.com/7tc7SnNIoy
