India's pace regulars have struggled in ODIs since the 2019 World Cup. Have the team found a solution?

 At six feet, seven inches, Prasidh Krishna can create skip even on the most resigned tracks. It helps that his stock ball is generally back of a length. He believes that length so much that it's become muscle memory.

In addition to the fact that Prasidh bowls this length reliably, he does as such at 140 ticks or more. That is the reason West Indies had no responses against him. His initial eruption of 4-2-3-2 stung them and what gave off an impression of being a low-pressure pursue was flipped around.

Prasidh didn't bowl a solitary full conveyance in his initial four overs. Sixteen out of 24 balls raised up from shy of length. Five of them nipped away off a length. The players attempted to climate this blast however it was no utilization. West Indies were being made horrendously mindful that this would not have been a walk.

In the event that the South Africa ODIs and these two against West Indies are any sign, India have all the earmarks of being inclining towards hit-the-deck seamers, and specifically those equipped for bossing the center overs.

Whenever Prasidh previously burst onto the enormous stage at the IPL in 2018, he couldn't perceive what direction the ball would move. Just when he turned into a top of the line ordinary in 2019 did he start to truly comprehend his own activity and delivery.

Working with S Aravind, the current Karnataka bowling trainer, has assisted Prasidh with fostering a solid wrist position that empowers him to control the sideways development. In his playing days, Aravind was a pro at making the ball move inconspicuously off the pitch. It's an attribute he needed to create in light of the fact that he wasn't honored with crude speed. That really conflicted with him when Kolkata Knight Riders were searching for a swap for the harmed Kamlesh Nagarkoti at IPL 2018.

Prasidh was liked to Aravind and his life has never been something very similar since. More than the monetary bonus, the IPL opened a window of inconceivable open doors to a then, at that point, player, up to that point, had just played a modest bunch of top of the line games in four full seasons.

The (inadvertent) wobble crease has given way to a more articulated one. Evidence that he knows precisely how he's treating now. Prasidh hit with his third conveyance. A normal length ball kicked up from a spot outside off as Brandon King's cut brought about a slim edge through to Rishabh Pant. It was a helpless piece of decision-production from the player. The ball wasn't sufficiently full to drive, nor was it adequately short to cut. An in the middle of shot to an in the middle of conveyance made India an early leap forward.
