The way he produced under pressure in his last outing against Delhi Capitals\u2014defending two runs off the final two balls\u2014has clearly sparked a confidence boost. On Sunday afternoon, he carried that momentum into a fresh challenge against Lucknow Super Giants at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in the national capital.<\/p>\n<h3>Quick facts<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Prasidh Krishna delivered his best IPL figures: 4\/28<\/li>\n<li>Match context: Gujarat Titans won the toss and chose to bowl at Ekana Cricket Stadium<\/li>\n<li>Krishna dismissed key LSG batters: Aiden Markram, Ayush Badoni, Nicholas Pooran, and Mukul Choudhary<\/li>\n<li>LSG had momentum: Mukul Choudhary\u2019s previous game included a 27-ball 54 not out versus Kolkata Knight Riders<\/li>\n<li>Result: GT chased 165 in the 19th over<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>After Gujarat Titans won the toss and opted to bowl, Krishna looked in total control at Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. He then produced his most effective spell in IPL history, finishing with figures of 4\/28. More importantly, he removed several of LSG\u2019s major threats, including Aiden Markram, Ayush Badoni, Nicholas Pooran and Mukul Choudhary.<\/p>\n<p>There was extra bite to those wickets because LSG\u2019s batting had been building confidence heading into the game. In their previous match against Kolkata Knight Riders, Mukul Choudhary had struck a rapid 27-ball 54 not out, and he had helped turn the contest into a memorable win. Against GT, however, that momentum was checked early as Krishna dismantled the group that had been doing the damage.<\/p>\n<h3>Man of the Match words<\/h3>\n<p>Krishna was naturally pleased with the performance, but he placed the emphasis on the team result. The fast bowler said the victory mattered most, describing how the side had worked hard and consistently looked to play their preferred style of cricket. He also suggested that his success was tied to the pressure created by the rest of the bowling unit.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking after receiving the Man-of-the-Match award, Krishna said, \u201cI think the most important thing was the victory for us. We worked really hard and were doing a lot of things right. We always look to play a good brand of cricket, and I think I am just here taking the laurels of all the pressure created by all the other bowlers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With the ball setting the tone, GT then carried the chase forward efficiently. They went on to complete the run chase of 165 in the 19th over, turning Krishna\u2019s spell into a decisive step toward the win.<\/p>\n<h3>Why the slow balls worked<\/h3>\n<p>Krishna\u2019s spell also stood out for its variation, especially his use of slower deliveries. He bowled a significant number of them during the match, forcing Lucknow\u2019s batters to keep adjusting their timing and shot selection. The 30-year-old, known for his lanky frame and rhythm, said he had prepared those deliveries thoroughly in training.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that those balls require repeated work before they can be trusted in a real game situation. \u201cDefinitely a lot of practice. You need to bowl a lot of them in the nets and feel good about it before bringing it out in a game. It does take a lot of hard work, a lot of time, a lot of effort in the nets, a tired body, and one day you get the fruits of it,\u201d Krishna said.<\/p>\n<p>Even with the success, Krishna did not hide his discomfort with the conditions. Having been involved in India\u2019s Test and ODI setup for some time, he still appeared less happy about the match being staged in the afternoon under very hot weather. Still, the result softened the mood.<\/p>\n<p>Krishna summed it up simply: \u201cIt was a little tiring in the afternoon for sure. But happy to win, it takes care of everything.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prasidh Krishna is once again stealing the headlines, and his recent IPL form is hard to ignore.
