Watch: Prithvi Shaw disrespects Greg Chappell, caught partying wildly after Australia legend's motivational message

India National Cricket Team batter Prithvi Shaw no doubt has only himself to blame for all the decline that he has been facing in his career. The young batter has often been in headlines for his off-field antics, and it is because of this that many are touting him as the next Vinod Kambli, who, too, after a great start in his career, was engaged in poor activities.

Prithvi Shaw, who won the U19 World Cup as captain, was touted as the next Sachin Tendulkar as his batting style was something similar to what the batting great had. Not only this batting style but the number of performances that he put in early in his career, both at the domestic and international stages, made many call him the next big thing in Indian cricket.

After winning the U19 World Cup, Shaw set the stage on fire in the Mumbai domestic circuit and, after that, was equally good in the Indian Premier League, playing for Delhi Capitals. Thanks to his heroics in domestic cricket, he made his debut for India and had a dream start.

Shaw slammed a century on his Test debut and, after that, performed consistently well for the team. The young batter then faced injury and couldn't make a return to the team. However, his off-field antics, too, didn't work against him as he faced many disciplinary charges, which kept him on the sidelines.

Shaw, although still plays for Mumbai his performances haven't been up to the mark, and now he has been dropped from the team for the Ranji Trophy 2024-25. He was axed from the team due to fitness and disciplinary issues as well.

Greg Chappell came up with the motivational message for Prithvi Shaw

Watching Shaw's decline, Australian legend Greg Chappell came up with a motivational message for the young batter. He wrote a letter to Mumbai batter, saying that he shouldn't be demotivated and should take the setback on his chin and come back stronger.

Greg Chappell hailed Shaw as one of the most exciting young cricketers of his time. While citing the example of great Don Bradman, he explained to the Mumbai batter that he should not avoid challenges and instead respond to them, staging a dominant comeback.

The message seemed to have not done anything to Shaw. The young batter was seen partying with his friends, including several actors and actresses, as he was celebrating his birthday. The video of the party has been doing rounds on the internet, with many criticizing the batter for his antics.

Shaw, after getting dropped from the squad for the Ranji Trophy, was included in Mumbai's probable squad for the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. It will be a great opportunity for the batter to reclaim his spot back in the team and then make his case strong for the Indian team.

Prithvi Shaw also will be part of the IPL 2025 auction. The batter was released from the Delhi Capitals, squad but with the kind of impact he has made in the league, he would be on the radar of some big teams.
