Former South Africa cricketer Allan Donald heaped praise on Indian pacer Prasidh Krishna despite a lukewarm start to his Test career.
Krishna, who made his Test debut in the first Test, picked up just a wicket for 98 runs in 20 overs in the team’s loss in Centurion.
The youngster didn’t have much to show in Cape Town Test as he bowled just 4 overs.

However, Donald has lauded Prasidh and said that the pacer has an easy bowling style which he loves.
“I love watching him bowl. He has come from nowhere. He has got such an easy way about himself”, Donald told Sportstar.
The former Proteas skipper also said that the youngster turned out to be a great back-up for Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj in second Test.
“He would have learned the lessons from the first Test match. It just looked that he was searching to find the right areas and he turned out to be a great back-up for Bumrah and Siraj, who did the bulk of the damage“, Donald further added.
“He is learning his trade and I just hope that he wants to play Test match cricket and not just the shortest format stuff. He is fun to watch”, the former SA skipper concluded.
