The Gujarat Titans are enjoying a sensational run in IPL 2025, with pacer Prasidh Krishna leading the charge. The Bengaluru-born bowler has been the standout performer for the team, claiming 16 wickets in just eight matches, making him one of the front-runners for the Purple Cap. Prasidh recently spoke about the key influences behind his success this season, specifically crediting Ashish Nehra for his guidance.
The pacer emphasised the importance of sticking to his plans and adapting to conditions. He revealed how Nehra has been instrumental in helping him fine-tune his skills, especially in reading the conditions and making the right decisions at the top of his run-up.
“I was very clear about what I wanted to work on, made sure I put in the hours, and had the right conversations with Ashish Nehra. One thing I’ve learned from him is about reading the conditions, the pitch, and making sure you make the right decisions when you’re at the top of the mark,” Prasidh Krishna shared on the JioHotstar Press Room.

With the Gujarat Titans aiming for a playoff spot, Prasidh also stressed the importance of consistency and staying grounded.
“Performing in every game as a team is crucial, and that’s exactly what we’re focusing on. No matter how many wins you have, momentum can shift with one match. We’re staying humble, working hard, and preparing thoroughly for every game,” he explained.
When asked about his favourite wicket of the season, Prasidh Krishna pointed to the dismissal of Delhi Capitals’ KL Rahul.
“That was my favorite because I was under pressure, and I was lucky that the ball swung late to get someone like KL Rahul,” he said.
