One of the stars for the Dinesh Karthik-led Kolkata Knight Riders on
Saturday evening was Karnataka pacer Prasidh Krishna, who returned with
figures of 4/30 in his quota of four overs against the SRH
The bowling performance was instrumental in
helping KKR register a win on the day and a play-off berth in the
on-going season of the IPL.
Krishna, who opened the bowling with Nitish Rana took the wickets of Shikhar Dhawan, Manish Pandey, Shakib Al Hasan and Rashid Khan which helped his team derail the SRH batting for 172/9 in their allotted 20 overs.
Prasidh Krishna, not only helped seal a berth in the knockout stages, but also
returned with the best bowling figures for a KKR bowler outside of
Kolkata this season. It also happens to be KKR’s second best individual
bowling performance after Kuldeep Yadav’s four wicket haul against
Rajasthan a few days ago.
Prasidh Krishna, who bowled a dream and decisive final over, where he took three
wickets and gave away four runs alongside a run-out that captain Dinesh
Karthik affected of the last ball, now has the second best figures from
an Indian pacer in this season.
Krishna, who opened the bowling with Nitish Rana took the wickets of Shikhar Dhawan, Manish Pandey, Shakib Al Hasan and Rashid Khan which helped his team derail the SRH batting for 172/9 in their allotted 20 overs.
Prasidh Krishna, who now leads the pack of the best bowling figures by a KKR
bowler against SRH in the IPL, also finds himself sixth on the list of
the best individual bowling performances this season, with Mayank
Markande, Kuldeep Yadav, Shreyas Gopal, Andrew Tye and Ankit Rajpoot
ahead of him.
