The cricketing world awaits Prithvi Shaw’s next destination following his exit from Mumbai cricket. Having been excluded from key domestic competitions and facing scrutiny regarding his fitness, Shaw has opted to seek opportunities elsewhere. He has requested an NOC, opening the door for him to join a new state team in the upcoming domestic season.
Vidarbha emerges as a frontrunner. The team is looking to fill the void left by departing players, and Shaw’s aggressive batting and experience could be invaluable. The presence of familiar cricketing environments within the Maharashtra setup may also sway his decision.
Kerala, who finished as runners-up in the previous Ranji Trophy season, is also an attractive proposition. Shaw could potentially secure a consistent spot in the team, alongside the chance to make an impact. Goa, with its history of accommodating former Mumbai players, could offer a fresh start and leadership opportunities for Shaw.
