Umran Malik's selection in the Indian T20 team against South Africa is currently the talk of the town and Virender Sehwag too, has joined in praising the 22-year-old speed sensation.

Malik with his ability to regularly deliver thunderbolts at around 150kmph forced the selection committee to pick him up for the upcoming 5-match home series which is set to begin on 9th June.

Lauding him, the former Indian cricketer, Virender Sehwag said that the Sunrisers Hyderabad's cricketer is a special talent who can turn out to be an important asset to Team India.

However, he warned the skipper KL Rahul, who will lead India in the SA series in absence of Rohit Sharma of using the youngster efficiently. 'He has to be used carefully by the Indian captain because if he is used too much in the powerplay, Umran may end up conceding a lot of runs, but if used efficiently, he will be an asset to the Team, said Sehwag.
