The Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) has put Prithvi Shaw’s emotional outbursts after he got excluded from the Vijay Hazare Trophy squad, declaring that the batter has mocked disciplinary norms and is ‘his own enemy’. When speaking to PTI, a senior official at the MCA claimed that the side was “forced to hide him” on the field due to bad fitness, discipline and attitude.
After being a part of the side’s title-winning Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy campaign, Shaw went to his social media and expressed his frustration for not being picked in the 16-member squad for Vijay Hazare Trophy.
“In the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, we were playing with 10 fielders as we were forced to hide Prithvi Shaw. The ball would pass near him and he would barely be able to get to it,” the official said on conditions of anonymity.
“Even while batting, we could see he was troubled reaching to the ball. His fitness, discipline and attitude are poor and it is pretty simple, there cannot be different rules for different players,” he claimed.
“Even the seniors in the team have started complaining about his attitude now,” he added.
When the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy was underway, Shaw had missed training sessions regularly after being out of the hotel for all night and returning at “six in the morning”.
“You would be wrong to think such posts on social media would have any impact on the Mumbai selectors and the MCA,” he added.
The official gave this statement about the off-field activities by Shaw drawing lot of attraction is because he is not not doing any justice for these activities by countering and performing well in the game.
