Prithvi Shaw has been at the receiving end in recent times. The young batsman from Mumbai has not been firing with the bat and has failed miserably in the IPL 2020 and the Aussie tour that followed. The fact that he keeps getting out in similar ways is something that puts a lot of cricket experts’ heads to spin. 

However, it is just fascinating how the poor fellow can be a subject for the trollers even when he is not in the XI. A funny incident that happened on the field during India and Australia’s fourth Test is what made the trollers give Shaw a little more hard time on social media.

The opening batsman was in the middle as a substitute fielder for Navdeep Saini, who left the field after complaining about some issues with his groin. During the run of play, Shaw was fielding inside the inner circle when a ball came to him. He ran swiftly, took the ball, and then threw it to the non-striker’s end.

However, while airborne the ball hit Rohit Sharma, who happened to be in the middle of the trajectory of the ball. The throw could have injured the experienced pro, which is the last thing India would want right now. The vice-captain didn’t react much but gave a look to Shaw and said nothing. Cricket Australia uploaded a clip of the incident on Twitter.

Twitter trolls Prithvi Shaw for his wild throw

However, the fans didn’t take this incident as light as Rohit. A barrage of trolling came along for Shaw on Twitter. Some fans joked that the young batsman is planning to get back his spot by injuring Rohit.

The Mumbai batsman had played for Delhi Capitals in the IPL 2020 and failed to make an impression. He got bowled out from the ball which was coming back into him several times. The struggles didn’t change when he arrived in Australia for the Tests. The flaw in his technique was picked as the social media made it a point to troll him.
