“This was necessary to wake him up from his sleep” – DC’s Honorary Parth Jindal said about Prithvi Shaw

Prithvi Shaw (Image Credit- Twitter X) Prithvi Shaw, once considered one of India’s brightest cricket talents, remained unsold in the IPL 2025 mega auction in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The 25-year-old batsman, who led India to victory in the 2018 U19 World Cup, had entered the auction with a base price of Rs 75 lakh but still remained unsold. Shaw, who was released by Delhi Capitals after a six-year stint, has been a key player in the franchise since 2018. However, due to lack of consistency in performance and questions over his fitness, no franchise bid on him. However, due to his lack of performance, Delhi also did not bid on him in the IPL 2025 auction. On this issue, DC co-owner Parth Jindal says that Shaw needed such a shock. Parth Jindal gave a big statement regarding Prithvi Shaw Speaking to Sports Today, Parth Jindal said, “Prithvi is a great kid. He has been misunderstood in many ways. And I think we all need a jolt as we grow up and wake us up from our slumber. Sometimes I needed that shock too. You grow up hearing all your life that you are special, you are the most talented, you are the only batsman in the world other than Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli to have an MRF bat. “It tells you what everyone thought of him.” He further said, “Some call you Lara, some call you Sachin, some call you the next big player. You grow up in such an environment, and everyone from Mumbai Cricket talks big about you. I think this was the shock the Earth needed. By now, he was on a hefty IPL contract, playing for Mumbai in all formats. At least he was a starter for DC. I think he needs to work harder. He needs to love the game of cricket. He needs to get back to the nets, regain his fitness. He needs to come back and understand where he went wrong and be disciplined.”

Rishabh Pant’s ambition is clear, he wants to captain India: Parth Jindal

Rishabh Pant will now be seen playing for Lucknow Super Giants instead of Delhi Capitals in IPL 2025. Rishabh Pant and Parth Jindal (Image Credit- Twitter Delhi Capitals (DC) co-owner Parth Jindal has recently said about star wicketkeeper batsman Rishabh Pant that he wants to become the captain of the Indian cricket team. After the mega auction of IPL 2025, Jindal has given a big statement regarding Pant’s ambition in life. It is noteworthy that in the IPL mega auction held in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, former Delhi Capitals captain Rishabh Pant has been added to the team by Lucknow Super Giants by making a record bid of Rs 27 crore. So there is also a possibility that Pant can be seen captaining LSG in the 18th season. Parth Jindal gave a big statement Let us tell you that after the mega auction for the 18th season of IPL, while talking with ESPN Cricinfo, Parth Jindal said – We were very clear that we know his (Pant’s) ambitions, we know where he wants to go. Wants. He has made it clear that his dream and desire is to captain India, and that starts with captaining an IPL team. Jindal further said about Akshar Patel and the captaincy of Delhi Capitals in the upcoming season – Akshar has been with the franchise for a long time. He has been a tremendous player for the franchise. He is probably the best all-rounder in T-20 today. He has been phenomenal for us and has done a great job as the vice-captain of the franchise. Whenever Rishabh was not available, whenever Rishabh was injured, Axar stepped up and played a big role. He’s a happy guy, he keeps the dressing room very light. He’s a simple character and he’s someone who, I think, can do very good work. So we will have to take a decision, but I have not talked to Akshar about this. But he is definitely someone who keeps the dressing room together, which is a good trait for a leader.

“You are and will always be my younger brother…”, Parth Jindal shared an emotional post about Rishabh Pant.

Parth Jindal gave a big statement Let us tell you that after the recent BCCI meeting, Parth Jindal was quoted by India Today as saying – There was no real result of this meeting. It was just to listen to the different views of all the owners and the BCCI has listened to us. Now they will tell us all the rules. Hopefully, by the end of August we will know about the rules for the next season. Jindal further said about the debate on ending the IPL mega auction- I was there in that meeting. There was a debate between some people. I was surprised because some people were saying that there should be no mega auction at all, there should be only mini auction. I am not one of the groups who are saying that the mega auction should be done away with. It is the auction that makes the game equal. It is great for everyone. It is what makes the IPL what it is, it makes it competitive. Jindal further said about the demands of the franchise owners- We are not unanimous on most of the demands. But I think BCCI will take the right decision as per its discretion. I think the chairman and secretary of the IPL Governing Council will take a decision on this.
