Umran had just bowled 4 balls and Assam coach Ratada stopped bowling after seeing the pace and asked that Assam players should not get injured before the match on his ball. Ratda also expressed surprise over Umran not being included in the team and called Umran and said, 'Don't worry, you will become India's speed one day.'

 

The coach advised to focus on bowling

 

Coach Randhir Singh said, 'Umran came to me at the age of 17. When he came, his speed was very good. Other batsmen were afraid to play his ball. Umran did not come regularly. After seeing his speed, I told him to focus and practice regularly. After which Umran started coming to practice continuously. A few days later, he was selected for the Under-19 team.
