Umran Malik, one of the fastest bowlers in world cricket, has yet to fully unleash his potential on the international stage. Since making his debut against New Zealand in Auckland in 2022, he has taken 24 wickets in 18 matches. Umran’s IPL journey began in 2021 when Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) picked him up for INR 4 crore. Recently, he has focused on improving his bowling accuracy, which has turned him into a more effective weapon in the shortest format. As he heads into IPL 2025, he’s primed to make a significant impact.
Umran Malik IPL 2025 price
During the IPL 2025 mega auction, the defending IPL champions, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), acquired pacer Umran Malik for his base price of INR 75 lakhs. The Kolkata team acquired him at the same base price during the accelerated auction round on Day 2 after he had first gone unsold in the early rounds.
Umran’s addition strengthens KKR’s fast bowling squad, and his back-of-a-length bowling style should be well complemented by the Eden Gardens pitch’s pace and bounce.
