Gujarat Titans pacer Prasidh Krishna came under the spotlight for all the wrong reasons during the IPL 2025 Eliminator against Mumbai Indians, as he endured a torrid outing with the ball. Despite a strong season for GT, Krishna’s performance in the high-pressure knockout match left fans disappointed and led to a barrage of trolls on social media.

Jonny Bairstow takes Prasidh Krishna to the cleaners

Making his debut for Mumbai Indians this season, England’s Jonny Bairstow made an instant impact by launching a fierce attack on Krishna. In what turned out to be a game-changing over, Bairstow smacked 26 runs off Krishna’s bowling, completely shifting the momentum in MI’s favour. The right-arm pacer was hammered all around the park, eventually finishing with 53 runs in 4 overs.

Notably, Bairstow opened the innings alongside former MI skipper Rohit Sharma, and the duo gave their side a blazing start. Their 84-run opening partnership not only nullified GT’s bowling threat early on but also laid the foundation for a massive total in the knockout clash. Bairstow’s aggressive approach clearly rattled the Titans’ bowling unit, with Krishna bearing the brunt of the assault.
