The Mumbai batter Prithvi Shaw did ot get any bids in the IPL 2025 mega auction due to which he remained unsold

No one at the auction table showed interest in bidding for Prithvi Shaw, including his former franchise Delhi Capitals (DC)

It was maybe due to his poor performance in the last season where he failed to deliver good knocks

The 25-year-old recently bought a penthouse in Bandra at one of the posh localities of Mumbai

He witnessed a very terrific rise in his initial years of career after winning the Under-19 World Cup for India in 2018 and landed a contract with the Delhi Capitals around the same time

But as early he got success, with the same speed he got a downfall in his career

Pravin Amre, who worked closely with Shaw has his say on him getting unsold in the auction, opened up on how it is very difficult to make youngsters understand

Many people said that Shaw wasn't able to handle all the frame and exposure he got at a very young age and the glamorous life of a cricketer

In an interview, Amre said that three years back he gave Vinod Kambl example to Shaw because he had seen Kambli’s downfall from close, it is very difficult to teach these things to this generation

“Three years back, I gave him Vinod Kambli’s example. I’ve seen Kambli’s downfall from close quarters. It’s not easy to teach certain things to this generation. Thanks to being retained by DC, Prithvi must have earned Rs 30-40 crore by the time he was 23. Will even an IIM graduate get that type of money? When you earn so much at such a young age, you tend to lose focus. It’s important that you know how to manage money, have good friends and prioritise cricket.”
