Prasidh Krishna is one of the fastest bowlers in India domestic circuit at the moment. The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) seamer was excellent in the IPL 2018, where he picked up 10 wickets in seven games.

The 22-year-old was excellent for Karnataka in the 2017/18 Vijay Hazare tournament and picked up 17 wickets (second highest wicket-taker) in the tournament. He has clocked speeds of 145 km/h in IPL 2018 and troubled batsmen with his pace and bounce.

He is currently with the India 'A' team in England and could be an interesting option to replace Jasprit Bumrah. However, his chances of making it to the Indian team are remote considering his relative inexperience.
