NEW DELHI
\nIndian pacer Muhammad Shami has said young pacer Umran Malik will take a little more time to become mature as a bowler.
\nMalik, a young right-arm pacer from Jammu and Kashmir, was the most exciting fast bowling prospects in India\u2019s Indian Premier League (IPL) currently as he has the knack of bowling consistently in the 150kmph range.
\n\u201cUmran Malik has the pace, but personally, if you take my opinion, I am not such a big fan of pace. If you are bowling at 140 but you can move the ball both ways, it is enough for any batter. He has the pace but I think he will take a little more time to mature because with pace, bowlers need to work on accuracy as well,\u201d Shami said during an interaction with select media on Friday.
\n\u201cObviously, it is a good sign for any country when you see youngsters bowling with good pace and swing. When you see you have the talent, you have pace, clarity comes to your mind and you know what is best for your team. In the end, it all boils down to the experience so it is important to give the youngsters games and it is important to keep the youngsters along seniors. It is important to give these youngsters enough game time,\u201d Shami said, when asked about the rising stocks of young fast bowlers in the country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
