A virus has been removed from his batting': Jadeja lauds Shaw's turnaround
Prithvi Shaw's turnaround from the low of Australia tour last year has been nothing short of sensational. After having his technique scrutinized following scores of 0 and 2 during the first India-Australia Test of the 2020-21 Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Shaw went back, worked on his batting, and returned with stellar returns in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, where he became the first player to amass over 800 runs in a single edition of the tournament. From there, Shaw continued his impeccable form in the IPL 2021 for the Delhi Capitals, scoring 308 runs from eight matches before the tournament was suspended indefinitely. Shaw's return to form has left everyone impressed, including former India batsman Ajay Jadeja, who feels watching the youngster bat at his free-flowing without any technical deficiency or otherwise is like watching a computer operate without a virus. “Like a computer has a virus, it's like a virus has been removed from his batting. Last year, a little virus had crept in his mind or technique, whichever way you want to put it. But when a player emerges from a shock – Shaw is an exceptional player – but even an ordinary player at any level finds it easy in his first year, but when the second year comes – if he can surpass it, he can leave everyone behind,” Jadeja told Cricbuzz.
