IPL 2022: Prithvi Shaw to join Delhi Capitals camp again

Prithvi Shaw is set to rejoin the Delhi Capitals for the rest of IPL-2022 after having been hospitalized since last Sunday due to typhoid. Shaw, who was down with fever and was admitted to the hospital, last played on May 1 against Lucknow Super Giants, and has missed the team’s last three games.

He had shared an Instagram post from his hospital bed, saying he was hopeful of coming back soon, and the youngster has indeed recovered after being severely ill. The 22-year-old has scored 259 runs in nine games@28.77 at a strike rate of 159.87, with two fifties, while forging an explosive opening partnership with Australia’s David Warner in IPL-15.

“When they play their next game against the Punjab Kings on Monday evening, Shaw is very likely to be available,” a source told this paper.
