During the 54th match of the 11th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) between Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at Hyderabad, Kolkata Knight Riders’ Prasidh Krishna bowled an efficacious over which might well be the difference between both the teams.

Earlier Kane Williamson, captain of Sunrisers Hyderabad, had won the toss and chose to bat. Sunrisers Hyderabad made three changed to their playing eleven, bringing in Yusuf Pathan, Colin Brathwaite and Bhuvneshwar Kumar in place of Alex Hales, Deepak Hooda and Basil Thampi. On the other hand, Kolkata Knight Riders made a solitary change to their playing eleven as they brought in Piyush Chawla in place of Shivam Mavi.

Prasidh Krishna.

Opening the bowling for the Knight Riders alongside Nitish Rana, Krishna conceded 11 runs in his first over. Bowling his last over, he gave a paltry four runs, picking up three wickets himself and one off a run-out.

On the first delivery of the last over, Manish Pandey slogged a low full-toss towards the leg side which was exceptionally taken in the deep by Rinku Singh. The substitute fielder had run in from deep mid-wicket to dive around in front and grab a catch. Pandey scored 25 (22) with the help of two fours and a six. Watch the video:

On the fourth delivery of the over, Shakib Al Hasan’s attempt to pull the ball saw him hitting it tamely to Sunil Narine at short fine-leg. He ended up scoring 10 (7) with the help of two fours. Watch the video:

On the penultimate delivery of the over, Rashid Khan sent the ball high into the air which was taken by Dinesh Karthik near the boundary. Karthik then run-out Bhuvneshwar Kumar on the last ball of the over after he failed to make contact with the ball. Watch the videos:
