"Are These Legends Fools?" Prithvi Shaw Lambasted For 'Ignoring' Sachin Tendulkar, Others' Advice

Out-of-favour India batter Prithvi Shaw is having a tough time in cricket. He could not find any takers at the IPL 2025 mega auction in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The 2018 U-19 World Cup winning captain was seen as the next big thing in Indian cricket, but his downfall in the past few years has taken him out of consideration for the Indian cricket team. What has become worse is the fact that Shaw will not be seen playing in IPL in the upcoming season too. Twice his name came up at the auction and despite a base price of Rs 75 lakh, not one paddle went up for him.

Once touted as the player who possess the same talent as the greats Sachin Tendulkar, Brian Lara and Virender Sehwag, Prithvi Shaw saw his career hit an all-new low in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 auction.

Shaw remains a player of high potential but disciplinary issues seem to have taken a massive toll on him, sending his cricketing career on a downward spiral. As Shaw went unsold in the auction, former India cricketer Mohammad Kaif showed him the cruel reality of his current status.
