Prithvi Shaw had a hopeless 2020 with the bat as he neglected to exploit the odds gave to him. The 21-year-old batting sensation needed to bear a worse than average season in Indian Premier League 2020 for Delhi Capitals as mentor Ricky Ponting featured the inadequacies in his game. At that point his shortcoming to in-pleasure seekers was again uncovered during India\u2019s visit through Australia. Shaw opened the innings for India in the first Test in Adelaide and played only 6 balls in the two innings he played.<\/p>\n
He was dropped from the playing XI as Shubman Gill replaced him. Shaw was criticised heavily for his technique as the youngster faced a low period early in his career. In any case, he has been illuminating the continuous Vijay Hazare Trophy with his strokeplay.<\/p>\n
Shaw has scored 754 runs in seven games at a normal of 188.5 in the tournament. It would appear that Shaw is at last making up for himself and a decent exhibition in the IPL could again place him in the retribution for a spot in Team India.<\/p>\n
Shaw as of late opened up about his battles with the bat and how he conversed with Sachin Tendulkar after the Australia visit.<\/p>\n
\u201cI met Sachin sir (Tendulkar) after I came back, he said don\u2019t make too many changes and to just play as close to the body as I could. I was late on the ball. So during the entire Australia tour, I worked on that part. Maybe it was because I had gone to Australia after playing in Dubai (IPL),\u201d Shaw told Indian Express.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy mind was messed up. My bat was coming down from the gully area, but that\u2019s how I have scored runs all my life. The problem was the way I was getting out and I had to fix it immediately. My back lift was the same but my bat was coming down slightly away from my body. There was an issue with the initial movement. I was in a fixed position. I needed to keep my bat closer to my body, which I wasn\u2019t doing,\u201d Shaw added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
