Want to know which team Umran Malik will play for in IPL 2025?
Umran Malik made a sensation with his express pace and bagged a massive deal with SRH. He performed well in the 2022 season.
But after that, Malik has been inconsistent with his performances, which resulted in him not getting retained by SRH before the IPL 2025 auction.
Having an express bowler like Malik is a luxury, and many teams would like to have him in their ranks. There may be a bidding war over him, but SRH may still try to buy him back in the auction.
