#2 Former cricketers feel Prithvi Shaw should work on his technique
At the age of 18, Prithvi Shaw became the youngest ever debutant to score a century in the first innings of his debut Test. Shaw achieved the feat against a hapless Windies side in Rajkot just a couple of days ago.
India went on to thrash them and achieve an easy innings victory. Shaw was named the man of the match for his effort.
However, former cricketers like Carl Hooper and Aakash Chopra felt that he needs to work on his technique.
"He seems to be a great talent but tends to play away from the body. Clearly, he likes to be on the back foot and play square off the wicket. It worked here (in Rajkot) but with so much gap between the bat and body, he could face issues in England and Australia," Carl Hooper told PTI.
"What we have just seen is perhaps a trailer of the things to come. It looks very promising. You cannot grudge about the opposition and pitch was flat. But he will be tested (overseas) and I am sure he is aware of it. We will get to know whether he can weather the storm and what all he needs to do," said Aakash Chopra.
