Ex-England cricketer Graeme Swann said SRH pacer Umran Malik's first delivery to GT captain Hardik Pandya in SRH's loss against GT was "absolute fire" and "stunned" Hardik. "Umran then bowled a rapid short delivery...got Hardik out," added Swann. Discussing the T20 World Cup 2022, Swann stated, "I will take Umran to Australia. Jasprit Bumrah's quick but...[not] express like Umran."
