It's high time @BCCI and Indian selectors including #RohitSharma & #ViratKohli should utilise the form of #PrithviShaw

Enough of this discipline excuse now. Even if there is any you have enough mgmt people to rectify him.

What a special knock 👏🏼 @vikrantgupta73 @rawatrahul9

Notably, Shaw had been in the headlines due to his cryptic posts after not being selected in the Indian squad for a couple of home and away assignments. He played his last international match in the Indian colors against Sri Lanka in the Colombo T20I  back in the year 2021.

Speaking of his international career, the Thane-born batter has played five Tests, six ODIs, and a T20I so far for the national side of India. In these appearances, he has scored 339 Test runs (42.37 average), and 189 ODI runs (31.50 average) respectively.

Currently, the Indian team is in action against Sri Lanka in the ongoing three-match ODI series. The men in blue have won the first match by a margin of 67 runs and have taken a lead of 1-0 in the series.

Following the conclusion of this assignment against Sri Lanka, India will play against New Zealand in the three-match T20I series followed by an ODI series of the same number of matches.
