Prithvi Shaw

 

The Indian opening batsman Prithvi Shaw once again left his fans disappointed after he failed to perform in the ongoing first day-night match against Australia.

Before the much-awaited first day-night Test match between India and Australia finally kickstarted at Adelaide, the Indian cricket team won the toss and chose to bat first. However, the team started off on the worst note possible as they lost their opening batsman on a duck.

Prithvi Shaw gave amazing performances against New Zealand earlier this year and this is one of the reasons he was picked over cricketers like Shubman Gill and KL Rahul, despite his poor performances in the warm-up game that took place ahead of the ongoing first Test match. Yes, Shaw didn’t have a great time in the practice games, as he ended up scoring 0, 19, 40, and 3.

 

On the other hand, Gill outscored Prithvi Shaw and other contenders to grab the opener’s slot. Shubman Gill’s amazing performances during the two practice games had of the four-match Test series against the Australian cricket team made him the frontrunner to partner Mayank Agarwal as India’s opener for the first test. Gill started off poorly with 0 and 29, however, in the second practice match, Shubman scored 43 and 65 runs.

However, the team decided to go with Prithvi Shaw, who once again failed to give the best of his capabilities.

Lot of technical issues, he is definitely overrated. @imVkohli said he is only 10% of @RealShubmanGill but preferred Shaw..strange #PrithviShaw

#firsttest @bhogleharsha K. L. Rahul would have been a better choice than Prithwi Shaw. The team selection is very poor. Ravi Shashtri reading of the wicket is very poor.
