KL Rahul on Thursday said he wasn’t surprised with the performance of pace bowler M Prasidh Krishna, who took four for 54 on debut in the first ODI against England, and said the youngster’s aggression and bravery impressed him.

“I am not surprised with what he did yesterday [Tuesday]. I was always confident that the next player to come out of Karnataka will be Prasidh. We weren’t of the same batch, but I watched him play a lot of junior cricket and also in the nets. He was somebody who would catch your eye. Tall guy, bowls quick and gets a lot of bounce from the wicket,” Rahul said in a virtual interaction.
