Talented Indopener Prithvi Shaw who was dropped from the Indian Test squad is likely to be back in the Indian ODI squad after some consistent big performances in the Vijay Hazare Trophy. Prithvi Shaw was under scrutiny for his technique against the moving ball but seems to have got rid of the flaws and has broken a lot of records during his purple patch now.
Shaw reached his fourth hundred with an excellent 165 in the ongoing Vijay Hazare Trophy semifinal against Karnataka and became the highest run-scorer in a single edition of the tournament surpassing Mayank Agarwal’s tally of 723 runs in 2018.
Shaw is knocking the doors for his selection in the Indian limited-overs team and he could be on the verge of hampering the career of these 4 Indian batsmen.
Prithvi Shaw’s Scintillating Form Will Hamper The Career Of These 4 Indian Batsmen:
Shikhar Dhawan:
Shikhar Dhawan has been a prolific run-scorer for India in the limited-overs setup and has been in good form in the IPL too for the Delhi Capitals where he finished as the second-highest run-scorer in the tournament. In the 139 games he has played for India in the 50 over format, Dhawan has scored 5808 runs at an average of 45 with 17 centuries.
Despite his good performances, Prithvi Shaw’s current form could get the nod, and also with age being a factor, India will be looking to build on Prithvi Shaw. Both play for the Delhi Capitals franchise and have opened a lot of games together. With Rohit being a certainty for the opening slot, Dhawan will be under pressure to perform consistently or Prithi could make the place his own.
