Prithvi Shaw was dropped from the national side after hir terrible run in international cricket. Shaw’s downfall started in the year 2020. Prithvi failed in the New Zealand tour then in the 13th edition of IPL and then finally in the first Test of Australia tour at Adelaide. He got an exit from the national side after a continuous failure.

The 21-year-old Shaw has got his name back in the Indian squad after missing out on the team for 7 months. Prithvi is part of the India tour of Sri Lanka limited-overs tour which will begin from 13 July in Colombo. The first choice players are in England for the Test series, So Shaw has a great opportunity to cement his place in the squad.

Cricketer turned commentator Aakash Chopra feels that if Prithvi Shaw performs well he will make the job tough for selectors. While discussing India’s T20 World Cup opening pair in response to a fan’s question. Aakash Chopra mentioned on a YouTube video that KL Rahul and Virat Kohli are the top two choices to open with Rohit Sharma.

However, He stated that Prithvi Shaw can be reckoned as a wild card choice.

“I will include a left-field selection in Prithvi Shaw as well. I am enjoying the way he plays his cricket. His brand of cricket takes the world by storm. It is not necessary that he will score runs in every match, but the day he scores, he will ruin the opposition,” Chopra said.

Aakash Chopra feels it will be a toss-up between KL Rahul and Virat Kohli to partner Rohit Sharma at the top for the global T20 meet.

“In the end, it might just be a toss-up between Rahul and Kohli. Rahul might just win that race because now Pant will definitely play; he will come in the middle order, and it is not necessary for Rahul to play in the middle order,” Chopra said.

“You can manage the lower order with Hardik Pandya, Rishabh Pant, and Jaddu. I will have Rahul right at the top. If not open, then at three. If he comes at three, then Kohli opens. That’s where I think things are moving.,” he added.
