Why prithvi shaw, shardul thakur & Sarfaraz became unsold..!?
Prithvi Shaw, who was considered a talented young player of the indian cricket team, did not go to auction even for his base price of Rs 75 lakhs in the IPL mega auction, which has shocked fans. prithvi shaw captained the indian team in Under-19 cricket and won the World Cup. Not only that, prithvi shaw, who performed well in both the IPL and the indian Test team, suddenly fell out of form due to injury and lack of attention to cricket. Prithvishaw, who was suffering from problems such as physical incapacity and obesity, was recently removed from the mumbai Ranji team. In this context, Prithvishaw, who was auctioned for seven and a half crore rupees in the last IPL 2024 season, is currently not selected by anyone even for 75 lakh rupees.
Similarly, shardul thakur, who was the main all-rounder of the chennai Super Kings team, was auctioned for 4 crore rupees last time. Before that, he was bought by delhi and KKR teams for 10 crores and 75 lakh rupees respectively in 2022 and 23. In this context, shardul thakur had set his base price at Rs 2 crore. No team selected him either. The new coach of the punjab team, Ricky Ponting, was asked about the reason why these two players were not selected. To which he replied, if Prithvishaw is the most talented young player I have ever worked with, then he is the one.
However, he is now trapped because of the mistakes he made in the past. I can't say anything else. As for shardul thakur, he went for a high price two years ago. But now he has not been able to show his old game. Ponting said that this is probably why no one has selected Shardul Thakur. Although sarfaraz khan is known as an aggressive player, his physical condition is said to be not suitable for T20I matches. Moreover, he has not made a big impact in the IPL in the past. cricket experts have said that this is why sarfaraz khan has not been asked for an auction by IPL teams.
