Amid IPL 2025 snub, Prithvi Shaw posted a cryptic post on his social media accounts, raising questions among his fans.

Prithvi Shaw’s cryptic post goes viral
Prithvi Shaw is not in any IPL team this time, as he went unsold in the IPL mega auction. Shaw, who had been released by Delhi Capitals, did not attract a single bid this time, despite his base price being INR 75 lakhs. No one showed interest in buying this player, which came as a shock to his fans. Also, in recent months, Shaw was also dropped from Mumbai’s Ranji Trophy squad.
There are many reasons behind his exclusion in recent months. First, his fitness and discipline concerns. Reports of fitness issues have been circulating, and his omission from Mumbai’s Ranji Trophy squad in the 2024 season due to these concerns is not new—this news has been all over the media. Shaw’s career has also been overshadowed by such incidents. In 2023, an altercation with a social media influencer tarnished Shaw’s image massively.
His last competitive appearance was in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy in December 2024, and his exclusion from Mumbai’s domestic squad due to fitness issues has further raised concerns.
