'Didn’t get to know the reason...I’m disappointed': Prithvi Shaw opens up on Team India snub

Prithvi Shaw hasn’t had a great 2023 so far but it looks like his fortunes are about to change. On Wednesday, the swashbuckling batter from Mumbai roared back to form with a blazing knock of 244 off just 153 balls while playing for Northamptonshire in England’s One-Day Cup domestic tournament.

Shaw’s brilliant batting helped Northamptonshire beat Somerset by 87 runs.

It was a welcome innings from the 23-year-old who has already played for India across all three formats but has been out of favour for a while now. He has not played for India since the tour of Sri Lanka in July 2021.

He was part of the T20I squad against New Zealand earlier this year but did not get a chance and was later left out for the ongoing West Indies tour.

In the IPL 2023, Shaw scored just 106 runs in eight matches.

The Wednesday knock would have given more confidence to the former U19 World Cup-winning captain, but Shaw said that while his innings has grabbed headlines, he isn’t thinking about a Team India comeback just yet and is currently focussed on enjoying his first stint in county cricket.
