The Indian selectors have named Prithvi Shaw in place of Shubman Gill for the upcoming 5-match Test series in England. Shaw, who has been in good form in white-ball cricket, has played some scintillating innings against Sri Lanka and that has earned him a ticket to England.

Butt also said that Shaw needs to shape his game according to the conditions and hence, the senior players in the team need to step up and guide him in tough terrain.
The former opener also said that although Shaw has an opportunity to prove the confidence shown by the selectors, he will have to settle his footwork against the moving ball like in England, the best players of the footwork struggle when the ball moves around. There are. corner.
“World class players like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Cheteshwar Pujara are part of the Indian team in England. He should give correct information to Prithvi Shaw on how to play in England. Hope he adjusts. If he doesn’t, you will see what happens,” Salman Butt said in his YouTube video.
Shaw has earned a lot of name in his short career so far. He likes to attack the opposition with the word Go and this has drawn comparisons with the likes of Virender Sehwag and Viv Richards. However, Butt believes that the right-handed batsman needs to kick off the start and convert the innings into big hundreds if he wants to be remembered for his particular style.
