Young Prithvi Shaw joined the elite group of Virat kohli and Mohammad Kaif by winning the U19 world cup by beating australia in the final on Saturday. On cloud nine after lifting the trophy, Shaw credited the team, support staff and singled out Dravid for special mention.
“Can’t express what I’m feeling right now, really proud. All credit to our support staff for really supporting us for the last two years. Rahul sir himself is a legend, ‘The Wall’ as we all know him.
“Full credit to our coaching staff. When you have two guys (Dravid and Paras Mhambrey), who have played international cricket, it gives you great insights,” Shaw said about their coach.
He was all praise for centurion Manjot Kalra as well.
“It was a crucial hundred from Manjot. (Shubman) Gill was batting so well before he got out. Both our pacers – Kamlesh Nagarkoti and Shivam Mavi, have been executing things so well through the tournament. It’s been wonderful playing matches here” he added.
