Prithvi Shaw, since not being picked in the IPL 2025 auction, has been in the news. Despite a modest base price of Rs 75 lakh, considering his potential, Shaw found no takers. Since then, Shaw has been in the limelight. For someone who broke domestic cricket records at will during the early stages of his career, Shaw's journey has been a tale of paradoxes. He started his international career with a Test century in 2018 but played only five Tests since then. Though he featured in six ODIs and one T20I, Shaw's career never flourished. Injury and off-form meant that he has for long been not considered for the national team.

In the 42nd over of the Indian innings, Scott Boland bowled a length delivery just outside the off-stump and Nitish decided to try out an unorthodox approach against the ball.
