10 Best Tweets On Prithvi Shaw’s ‘Confident’ Fifty

Cricket LoungeBy Cricket Lounge29/02/2020Updated:08/02/2023No Comments3 Mins Read

After failing to make it big in the first Test match against New Zealand at Willington, there was a lot of criticism for Indian opener Prithvi Shaw. He threw away his wickets in both the innings for the scores of 16 and 10 while looking desperate to attack the opposition. His failure prompted the majority of fans to call out for his exclusion from the playing xi for the second Test match. However, Prithvi Shaw made a solid comeback in the ongoing second test match at Hagley Oval, Christchurch.

After Virat Kohli once again lost the toss, the Indian Cricket team was asked to bat first on the green top. After a delay of 45 minutes due to drizzles, the matter looked tougher for the Indian openers.

However, Prithvi Shaw not just resorted to his natural game but also gave a confident kickstart to the Indian cricket team. As soon as the game started, Prithvi Shaw smashed New Zealand’s pacers to all the corners of the ground. His pulls, drives, and flicks, brought together all the shattered hopes of the Indian cricket fans.

His gutsy shots at the strike-rate of over 80, helped him reach the fifty in just 61 balls, hitting eight fours and one six during his innings.

However, he soon fell off a wide delivery from Keylie Jamieson. Prithvi Shaw departed after scoring 54 off 64 balls, but with this knock, Prithvi Shaw has entered the elite list following the footsteps of the legendary batsman Sachin Tendulkar.

Prithvi Shaw is just showing his talent. His intent is absolutely like @virendersehwag. Absolutely amazing batting by Shaw.
Pujara is doing what he usually does at the start of inning.
Good luck India.#NZvsIND

First time Shaw has tried to drive the ball through the covers and it’s costs him. Good sign for India is how Shaw made subtle changes to his batting. #INDvNZ
