Shashank opened up about the things that haven't gone right for Prithvi Shaw which have kept him out of the national team despite so much talent in him. The Punjab Kings batter feels that Shaw needs to get back to his basics in order to regain his touch.
While speaking during a podcast on 'Shubhankar Mishra' YouTube channel, Shashank Singh was asked about the future of Indian cricket. He named Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill which was quite obvious by looking at their performances in international cricket.
"Yashasvi (Jaiswal) for sure, is a big name. Shubman (Gill) is a very talented player. There is an underrated player in this list - Prithvi Shaw - if he comes back to his basics, then nobody is near him. I've known him for 13 years as I used to play for Bombay (Mumbai)," Shashank said.
"Those things include work ethics, fitness, and some discipline as well. I'm 100 percent sure that he might be doing such things since he has played Test cricket but may be if he modifies some things, he will get better," the PBKS batter added.
Prithvi Shaw's last international match
He was once seen as the next opener in Indian cricket with his ability to score runs at will. However, he remained unsold in the IPL 2025 auction which resulted in another low for him.
Nitish Kumar Reddy - Next big thing in Indian cricket
When asked about the next big thing in Indian cricket, Shashank Singh hailed Nitish Kumar Reddy's composure for his ability to perform under pressure. He feels that Nitish will be backed even if he fails for a few games because of his immense ability.
"It is about performing well under pressure. I think Nitish has performed well under pressure. Even if he flops in a couple of games, he will get the backing because he has performed well under pressure and it is right to back him," he claimed.
Nitish was retained by Sunrisers Hyderabad for INR 6 crore before the IPL 2025 mega auction. He will be a key player for his team with both bat and ball as he possesses immense ability to change the game with his skills.
