I don't know whether it's just a filmi convention, or whether it was ever used much in real life, but "sister-brother" is often heard in Hindi cinema for male matrilineal cousin. To be fair, the most common word for cousin that I hear in Hindi is "cousin". The most common Hindi words used for cousin seem to be those that mean "brother" and "sister".
