Watch— The best delivery of India vs New Zealand 1st ODI bowled by Prasidh Krishna

Prasidh Krishna

The first match of the ODI series between India and New Zealand is being played in Vadodara. India won the toss and elected to bowl. During New Zealand’s innings, Indian pacers showcased their fast bowling prowess.

Team India pacer Prasidh Krishna may not have taken many wickets, but he bowled well. Prasidh dismissed New Zealand batsman Mitchell Hay when he was becoming dangerous. A video of his thrashing of the Kiwi batsman is going viral on social media.

However, the way he dismissed Mitchell Hayne with a full-length delivery in Vadodara is commendable. Prasidh’s delivery landed on the off-stump and then came in sharply. The ball had so much variation that Mitchell Hayne couldn’t handle it. This dream delivery from Prasidh Krishna caught Mitchell Hayne flat on the ground, and the ball blew away the stumps. He was dismissed for 18 runs off 13 balls in that match.

There was uncertainty about whether Prasidh Krishna would play in the first match against New Zealand. However, when he was included in the playing XI, Prasidh began trending on social media. The reason for this trend was the question of why Prasidh was given a chance while Arshdeep was left out. Cricket fans on social media accused him of favoritism. Fans believed that Arshdeep was a better bowler than Prasidh Krishna. However, Prasidh proved that he was no less by taking two wickets in this match.
