Prithvi Shaw while talking on Focused Indian YouTube channel said, I came to know that Sachin sir also plays in MIG (Middle Income Group Ground). Then I came to that club and started practicing. Then I saw Sachin sir playing for the first time. I saw him in person for the first time. I watched from a distance, apparently he was practicing on the main wicket, then he left, at that time I did not take a photo because there were a lot of people there. At that time I was about 9 years old. And then the next time I was batting, we were batting on the middle wicket, then Jagdish sir requested Sachin sir to watch me bat once. Prithvi further said, Sachin Sir was standing on the first floor of MIG Club, he was watching. I saw that sir was watching. Now what happened under that pressure, I missed two-three balls. Till then I was batting okay.

He said, “It looks good for India also. Before captaining against Sri Lanka, I had also led the team against Australia and South Africa. I have learned from other captains how to take the team forward. Let’s look ahead, keep moving. You will come to know the rest.” Surya has scored a lot of runs in the IPL in the last few years and that is why he was successful in making his debut for Team India in the year 2021. After his debut, Surya scored a lot of runs with his bat and within no time he became the number-1 batsman in the T20I rankings.
