“Prithvi Shaw was often dismissed in the first five overs even during the IPL season. I told him that whatever plan he had, was not working and we would have to change a few things. As a coach, I had to give him options as to what might work for him. I also told him that we would focus solely on the white ball as his next few assignments were Vijay Hazare and IPL. No one is going to consider him for the red-ball anymore. “– Delhi Capital’s assistant coach Pravin Amre
