India and Kolkata Knight Riders fast bowler Prasidh Krishna has tested positive for Covid-19. Krishna becomes the fourth player from the Knight Riders camp to have tested positive after Varun Chakravarthy, Sandeep Warrier and Tim Seifert.

Details on the whereabouts of Krishna – whether he is isolating at a medical facility or at his home in Bengaluru – could not be confirmed. On Friday the BCCI had named Krishna among the four standbys for the World Test Championship final and the Test series in England.

Krishna, 25, made his India debut earlier this year in the ODI series against England in Pune and picked six wickets in three matches.
