Team India's tearaway pacer Umran Malik made his much-awaited ODI debut in the series opener against New Zealand on Friday, November 25.While the fast bowler had an impressive start to his career, picking up two crucial wickets, he leaked runs in his final overs. Notably, Malik dismissed Devon Conway and Daryl Mitchell in the first ODI and was also praised by many for his lethal pace.However, certain fans also expressed displeasure over his one-dimensional bowling, urging him to add a few variations to his arsenal. The talented youngster finished with figures of 66/2 in 10 overs in his maiden appearance in ODI cricket.Here are some of the reactions to Umran Malik's performance on Twitter:It's Me MR #TejRan Fam👑@MRxTweetz_Well done #UmranMalik Really impressed with your bowling today Keep Working Hard BOY #INDvsNZWell done #UmranMalik 👏Really impressed with your bowling today 🔥👏 Keep Working Hard BOY 🔥🔥🇮🇳#INDvsNZ https://t.co/gJwTZkRkVTMozin Hameed@mozinhameedUmran Malik puts hard yards but he isn't able to follow it up nicely.Just saw his few yorkers,he was damn spot on.His skills r really incredible,just needs to back his abilities.#IndiaVsNewZealand #UmranMalik1Umran Malik puts hard yards but he isn't able to follow it up nicely.Just saw his few yorkers,he was damn spot on.His skills r really incredible,just needs to back his abilities.#IndiaVsNewZealand #UmranMalikSujal@Sujal_Pandey07Wow #UmranMalik!!

While the 23-year-old bagged two scalps in those fixtures, he has a dismal economy rate of 12.44.The Indian team management is likely to persist with him for the remaining two ODI matches against the Blackcaps. The speedster will be aiming to prove his worth in the lineup as he looks to cement his place in the country's white-ball teams.Tom Latham and Kane Williamson guide New Zealand to a dominant 7-wicket win over IndiaMeanwhile, New Zealand won the toss and elected to field first at Eden Park Auckland in the opening encounter of the three-match ODI series against India.India managed to register an impressive total of 306 thanks to fine half-centuries by Shreyas Iyer (80), Shikhar Dhawan (72), and Shubman Gill (50).
