In the first Test match played in Leeds, Team India was defeated by host England by five wickets, taking a 1-0 lead in the series. So, now the second match of the Test series will be played at Edgbaston ground in Birmingham from July 2.
Before this match, the matter of concern for Team India is that Jasprit Bumrah may not play in this match due to workload. So, before this second Test match, Team India’s fast bowler Prasidh Krishna, who won the Purple Cap in IPL 2025, has given a big statement. Krishna says it is my responsibility to do better.
Indian bowler Prasidh Krishna made a big statement
Before the second Test against England in Birmingham, Prasiddh Krishna was quoted by Cricbuzz as saying – Every time I come to bowl, I definitely try to bowl maiden overs, and I don’t really try to give boundaries or anything.
The outfield at Headingley was quite fast. The length and line I bowled, honestly, was not right most of the time, and they troubled me. Some of them had an edge on the ball, in some I tried to bowl bouncers, and I gave runs.
Krishna further said – Someone from the team had to bowl short pitch, which I did, but now I want to see my figures to see what my economy is. I do not pay attention to wickets while bowling.
If I take wickets with this kind of bowling in the second Test, I will be happy. Now it is my responsibility to do better, but definitely every time I come to bowl, I try to keep the economy low and build pressure.
