In his 3 T20Is, Umran was bowling 140 k to 148 k/150  k, averaging around 143 k or 144 k.

 

Not too bad for a debut series when nerves come into play.

 

He managed to defend 17 runs in the last over of his last match.

 

Pacers get quicker when their place in the team is assured. Nobody can bowl flat out when they know that 2 bad matches mean getting dropped. SRH gave hom that assurance and he bowled quicker. The 157 k did not come during his earlier IPL matches.

exactly Correct statement. 

 

Dear Selectors- Realize the truth that Umran is one of the best 5 Pacers in India for all the three formats. Support him to the fullest.

He will go for RUNS- even bumrah has got hit. But just see how fast this guy gets full control over his line and length. Investing in him will give better returns than investing in Umesh Yadav( Umesh is not at least a good test and ODI bowler though not a good t20 bowler still but he has become good because of time given to him)

Fact:Steyn Bhishop Akram Lee  McGrath Yonis are more excited about new crop Indian fast bowlers like  Tyagi Sen moshin Umran lol than any of our own. 
 

no wonder their respective countries nurture fast bowlers better. 

 

2014 to 2020 was an abberation looks like we will be back to square one. With good boy Dravid sir Wall Sir; medium pace greatest line and length only when medium Chetan sir and angry only in face Mohanty da. 

we are basically set up to fail in this regard. 
 

We  have no names who never bowled this quick so probably believed line & length is more important than bowling quick school of thought. Everyone you listed bowled fast except may be McGrath who still bowled around 130kph with deadly line & length. 

 

Someone like Srinath, Agarkar should be in our selection or coaching set up, or get a some one like Styen or Lee. India always produced great batters, if we need a culture of quick bowlers we need to learn from those who have that culture, how can you expect to nurture a fast bowling culture with a team selected or coached by folks who themselves didn’t know how?!
