Steyn has kept the youngster close to his heart and away from all criticism for being a bit wayward and going for plenty of runs.The former World No. 1 bowler has all good things to say about Umran Malik and recently predicted that the 22-year-old pacer will play for India very soon. Speaking to Sportstar, Steyn stated:“Umran will play international cricket, no doubt about that. He bowls at 150kmph consistently, and nobody else is doing that in the world right now, maybe Lockie Ferguson is the other guy who does it. But they are very different bowlers. From an Indian point of view, he is the only guy that consistently bowls over 145-150kmph every single ball so he will play for India. But how India manages him is completely up to them.&quot;If reports are to be believed, Umran Malik is in the reckoning for a spot in the squad for the T20Is against South Africa, which is scheduled to take place in June.
