Muralikrishna Prasidh Krishna is a professional cricketer who has represented the Indian cricket team across all formats and Karnataka domestically. He is primarily a right-arm fast-medium bowler, taking crucial wickets for his team in the powerplay.
Starting his first-class career at just 19, Prasidh claimed a wicket with his very first ball against Bangladesh A but had to wait three years for another chance due to the strong competition within Karnataka's pace attack. He played a crucial role in Karnataka's Vijay Hazare Trophy victory in 2017-18 and joined the Kolkata Knight Riders in 2018. However, sustaining numerous stress fracture injuries have limited his appearances, despite securing a lucrative IPL contract from the Rajasthan Royals.
