Lifeline of Cricket
Prithvi Shaw was called the next Sachin Tendulkar or Virender Sehwag by many but he has completely ruined his career. The young batter was recently dropped by Mumbai for the Vijay Hazare Trophy after he refused to follow the rules.
Shaw was miffed with the Vijay Hazare Trophy snub and took to social media to highlight his performance over the years, but his display was not the only reason behind his removal. One of the officials of the Mumbai Cricket Association has revealed that Shaw was not considered due to fitness issues, indiscipline, and attitude.
Shaw used to go to late-night parties and returned to the team hotel at 6 am. He missed several training sessions, making other players uncomfortable.
“In the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, we played with 10 fielders as we had to hide Prithvi Shaw. He was not able to stop the ball,” the official said on conditions of anonymity to the PTI.
“He couldn’t bat properly and there were serious issues with his fitness, discipline and attitude. We can’t have different rules for him,” he revealed.
“Some senior players were not in favour of the player as his attitude was not right,” he added.
The official refused to give importance to Prithvi Shaw’s social media post. “The selectors and the Mumbai Cricket Association don’t get influenced by his social media activities,” he concluded.
Earlier, Shreyas Iyer had slammed Shaw, saying that the team can’t babysit him and he will have to sit down and come up with plans to solve the issues.
