Indian Premier League (Match 30) - 14 October, 2020 - DC [161/7] beat RR [148/8] by 13 runs

[Rana]

Prithvi Shaw is just a glorified slogger. Awful technique.

No way.

Prithvi is a very good player. Best u21 player in the world. Love his bravery as a batsman. He was bowled by a peach, perfect ball by Archer today

Disagree, you could drive a car between the gap between his bat and pad on most days. Flails wildly at the ball outside off-stump, and invariably displays comical shot selection every time he plays out a few dot balls. It's utter hyperbole to state he's the best u21 batsman in the world.

Gill is the one to watch from the young Indian batsmen, also like the look of that left-handed opener at RCB.

RR and Punjab are done.

Agreed. CSK will be close to done if they lose 1 or 2 more games as well.

It's T20. Shaw is a test batter. And he is good odi player. He is not T20 material.

Just scored a century in last international game which wasn't in Australia and he did well at the World Cup which wasn't in Australia.

He is a mediocre player. Anyone can have a few good games. He averages like 28 outside Australia. He is a can.

He will only do well in Asia as a test player, that defense is too fickle to succeed when the ball is swinging.

What?? It's the other way round actually. He can succeed in LOIs but his technique is there to get exposed in tests against quality attacks and overseas against the moving ball. Further, his shot selections are very poor. His fitness is even worse. Kohli needs to take him under his wings to get his fitness right.

It is our Indian hype propoganda that has built an illusion that he is next Tendulkar or Lara lol. Preferably, he will do well to have a Sehwag like career. He does have the hunger for runs, I can give that to him but time and again, he has gotten exposed against quality attacks.
