'No, we haven't spoken yet, if I get a chance, I will speak to Viru sir': Shaw
For the second time in two matches, Prithvi Shaw reminded the world of Virender Sehwag when he began the innings with a four off the first ball. In the previous match against Sunrisers Hyderabad, Shaw began the Delhi Capitals innings with three successive fours to get things going, but on Thursday, he took it to the next level, smashing six consecutive fours in the first over off Shivam Mavi, thus becoming only the second batsman in the history of IPL after Ajinkya Rahane to do so.
Shaw carried his form and scored a belligerent fifty off just 18 balls – the fastest half-century of this season – and celebrated the occasion scoring 82 off 41 balls as DC cantered home by seven wickets with more than three overs to go. After the match, Shaw revealed whether he has had any conversation with the great Sehwag which could be the reason behind his blazing starts.
“When I think I am in good touch and I donot think about the score anymore. When I am batting, I donot care about myself, I just want my team to win. No, we havenot spoken yet, but if I get a chance, I will speak to Viru [Virender Sehwag] sir because he is the one who likes to score off the first ball,” Shaw said during the post-match presentation ceremony.
