Would love to see Umran Malik in World Cup: Australia cricketer Chris Lynn

MUMBAI: Australia cricketer Chris Lynn said that he would love to see Sunrisers Hyderabad's tearaway pacer Umran Malik in India's squad for the ICC Men's T20 World Cup later in the year.

Lynn added that the bounce and pace in pitches of Australia, the host nation of Men's T20 World Cup 2022, would suit Malik's style of bowling.

Malik's career has been on a fast upswing since coming in as a Covid-19 replacement for T Natarajan in the second half of IPL 2021 and instantly made an impression with his raw pace rattling the batters.

"From the outside looking in, definitely. I will factor the wickets are bouncy here in Australia and you need I suppose that youth and just that guys haven't played against it. You keep going back to whom you drop because it is such a formidable (bowling) line-up, but would love to see this guy in the World Cup. He's going to take the world by the storm if he does get a chance at the international level. It is lucky that I am not a selector for India," said Lynn on ESPNCricinfo's T20 Time Out show. IANS
