Describing the same one of the sources of TOI in BCCI said, “Prithvi is still very slow across the turf for a 21-year-old. He needs to shed a few more kilos. He also had concentration issues while fielding in Australia. Shaw has been working hard since he returned from Australia. He has the example of Rishabh Pant right in front of him. If Pant can turn things around in a few months, Prithvi too can do it.”

The source also explained that the selectors have urged Prithvi Shaw to work on his consistency and find a way of continuing his purple patch for long periods.
