The young opening batter has been piling runs on the domestic circuit and had a fruitful campaign against New Zealand A recently as well. Shaw posted a cryptic message on his social media handles after being snubbed by the selectors for the series, where India will play a second-string side led by Shikhar Dhawan. He was last seen playing in national colors during India's tour of Sri Lanka in 2021, where he made his sole T20I appearance to date. Joy Bhattacharjya@joybhattacharjWhat else does Prithvi Shaw need to do to make a white ball Indian team? He is one of the most intimidating players in the planet in that format.3647209What else does Prithvi Shaw need to do to make a white ball Indian team? He is one of the most intimidating players in the planet in that format. Opining that Shaw's recent performances warranted a place in the squad, Chopra said on his YouTube channel: "There is no Prithvi Shaw for this series. When the squad was announced his name should have been there, right? He is a top top player. I think he should have been selected." The Mumbai-born batter has amassed two fifties and two hundreds across his last five matches across formats on the domestic circuit. Apart from having a good series against New Zealand A last month, he also left a lasting impact in the Duleep Trophy 2022 for the West Zone. I frankly see him playing the next T20 World Cup - Aakash Chopra on Prithvi Shaw s future In a year where management have doled out chances to youngsters, especially when multiple tours were conducted at the same time, it is a surprise that Shaw was not called up even once. He also had a relatively successful Indian Premier League (IPL) campaign under his belt to rest his case, but the call-up never arrived.

I frankly see him playing the next T20 World Cup." Chopra continued: "Management should start inducting him and utilizing him. His numbers are fantastic in domestic cricket. He is a destructive player, so he should have been part of this squad." The explosive opening batter will next be seen at the upcoming Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. Representing Mumbai, he will play under Ajinkya Rahane in a side that also comprises the likes of Yashasvi Jaiswal and Sarfaraz Khan.
