Prithvi Shaw is going to be one of the players who will be on the watch for IPL 2025 mega-auctions. He was once considered to be the future star of Indian cricket, but now Shaw has not played international cricket since 2021.
Delhi Capitals (DC) were the team who had retained him before the IPL 2022 mega-auctions, and retained him for a couple of seasons. Since Shaw is a capped player and has appeared in all three formats, a lot of people expect him to register his name for the mega-auctions at the highest base price.
Prithvi has set his base price at Rs. 75 lakh. Shaw is one f the fastest batter in Indian cricket to this day, and can single-handedly win matches when he is in his complete form. A few teams are expected to place high bids for him in the mega-auction.
Prithvi had struggled in IPL 2020, and could only manage to score 228 runs at an average of 17.53. He had a strong strike in IPL 2021 as he gained back his form and strongly scored 479 runs.
He played 8 matches and scored 106 runs in IPL 2023, followed up by 198 runs in IPL 2024. He was expected to be released before the mega-auctions of the IPL 2025, but now will be a part of an auction for the first time since 2018.
