Team India opener Prithvi Shaw has finally broken the silence over his controversies. In an interview given to News 24, he compared himself to Jethalal, the popular character of ‘Tarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashma’, saying, “Nothing did it, the infamy comes to me on my own. I am Jethalal.” Shaw further said, “There has been no dispute for a long time, but still people do not leave me. It seems as if the controversies come on their own.”
Recall that in 2023, Prithvi Shaw was caught in a controversy with a social media influencer, where he was accused of tampering. However, the court later gave him a clean chit. After this, Shaw also struggled continuously about fitness and form. He was not bought by any team in the mega auction of IPL 2025.
Even in domestic cricket, his time was not going well. He was dropped from Mumbai’s Ranji and Vijay Hazare team. After this, the news is now coming that Prithvi Shaw can leave Mumbai team. According to Madia reports, he has also acquired NOC from Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA).

At one time, Shaw was praised by Ravi Shastri by calling Sehwag, Lara and Tendulkar a mixture when Prithvi Shaw scored a century in the debut test in 2018. But now the direction of his career has completely changed. It remains to be seen how much the new state and the new atmosphere helps Prithvi Shaw to return.
