#3 Prasidh Krishna

Kolkata Knight Riders acquired Prasidh Krishna in 2018 after an unfortunate injury ruled out Kamlesh Nagarkoti. The Karnataka pacer - an active replacement of Nagarkoti - featured in seven games for KKR in the 2018 edition while scalping ten wickets at an average of 26.00 and a strike-rate of 16.80.
Kolkata management expected Krishna to carry forward the same form in the IPL 2019 as well. Unfortunately, he failed to meet those expectations and finished the season having played 11 matches for KKR with not so good numbers - four wickets at an average of 94.25, strike-rate of 60.25, and an economy of 9.34.
Taking into account Prasidh's sub-par performance in the previous edition of IPL, KKR will be in all probability let him go to try and improve their bowling department.
