Prithvi Shaw returned to the Indian team for the series against New Zealand. Even though he didn’t get a spot in the playing 11, Shaw revealed that it was good to be back in the Indian setup. When asked about the selection in the team, he stated it depended on the management’s choice to select the team.
“I felt nice coming back into the T20I squad, to meet the players and train with them. I enjoyed that bit. Yes, I did not get an opportunity but was given the chance to make a comeback, which mattered, It all depended on them when to play and when not to, but I respected that because probably they wanted to give the person before me a bit longer run,” said Shaw.

When asked about why he felt it took time for him to make this comeback, Shaw said: “I kept on scoring runs. I felt if that was not enough then I have to score more and more…then I scored 379. It was just my day and felt I will not let go of this opportunity. Sometimes it just tends to hit you that why I am not in the Indian team for so long despite all the efforts…but it’s never too late.”
The availability of plenty of openers in the Indian Team is one of the main reasons behind Prithvi Shaw’s non-selection. In all three formats, the preferred openers are Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill. After these two, Ishan Kishan has already cemented his position as a backup opener.
