Border-Gavaskar Trophy: Enough bounce for us to be in the game, says Prasidh Krishna

The Hindu  

It has taken nearly a year for Prasidh Krishna to bowl again for India in Test whites. Prasidh tweaked his approach after lunch: “The analyst and I sat together and we had a better idea of what my reference point is when I am bowling, and that really helped.” Despite a start-stop career, the Bangalorean is optimistic: “Honestly I haven’t really thought about how much time I have missed in cricket. I have had two injuries in two years, but it feels great and hopefully keep doing this on the field for longer.” About the surface, Prasidh said: “It is getting difficult in some areas, the ball is keeping low sometimes but there is enough bounce for us to be in the game and look for those edges and try and beat them on either side of the bat.” Having relished Rishabh Pant’s onslaught, Prasidh said: “It was real fun, all of us were sitting together and watching him bat. I know it’s a lot of risk but that’s the way the game is played today.” Probed about an ideal target for the host, Prasidh replied: “There is no particular number in mind but getting as many runs would be good and we are ready to bowl them out.”
