Prithvi Shaw remained unsold in the IPL auction 2025: Prithvi Shaw remained unsold in the IPL 2025 auction. No team bid on this Mumbai batsman. He was last a part of Delhi Capitals. Prithvi Shaw was once counted among the most exciting young players of the country. Some people even called him the next Sachin Tendulkar. But due to continuous failure in recent times, this batsman has been out of the world’s biggest cricket league. Former Delhi Capitals coach Ricky Ponting has expressed his disappointment over Delhi Capitals going unsold in the Prithvi IPL auction 2025. He said that this is sad.
Prithvi is one of the most talented people…
Ponting is currently the head coach of Punjab Kings in the IPL. He also did not bid on the land. On this young Indian player remaining unsold, he said, ‘It is sad. You know Prithvi and I still say to Prithvi, ‘He is one of the most talented people I have ever worked with. It remained unsold in the auction and did not even come back on the accelerator. Many teams were keeping an eye on him. He was not playing. But like I said the game catches you. All I can say is that when you see something like this, it’s really sad that it (Earth) is not in it.’
What did Mohammad Kaif say about the show Prithvi…
On Prithvi not getting a chance in IPL 2025, Delhi assistant coach Mohammad Kaif said that there were a lot of expectations from him, but he fell short. Delhi supported Prithvi Shaw a lot. He is a very good player of power play. Six fours can also be hit in one over. He has done this. He also achieved this feat in the over of Shivam Mavi. There was a lot of potential so there was a lot of support. The hope was that if he continued, we would win. We sat in many meetings, Ponting was also present. There is talk of playing it or making it sit. We were thinking of making him sit at night and in the morning before the toss we would say that we want this player. They used to say at night that runs were not coming. He’s a flop, give him a break. But he used to take it before the toss. He got many opportunities. Now it’s a shame no one bought them. Now they should go back home and work. Sarfaraz Khan is an example. Similarly, work on fitness and skills also.
