Prithvi Shaw and controversy are drawn towards each other. The explosive batsmen who are out of Team India make headlines for wrong reasons instead of good reasons. Even if he performs well on the field, Shaw still gets trapped in some controversy or the other. Despite scoring a brilliant century in the practice match between Maharashtra and Mumbai, Prithvi Shaw remains in the news due to his feud with Mumbai’s young all-rounder Musheer Khan. Now their difficulties have increased in this matter because investigation is now starting against Shaw.
On the very first day of the practice match between Mumbai-Maharashtra, there was a fight between Prithvi Shaw and Musheer Khan, which surprised everyone. There were allegations that Musheer and some Mumbai players had sledged Shaw, after which the batsman had grabbed Musheer’s collar and then threatened to hit him with the bat. Now Mumbai Cricket Association and Maharashtra Cricket Association are starting separate investigations in this matter.
‘Colonel’ will investigate the matter
According to a report, Mumbai Association (MCA) Secretary Abhay Harap said that during the Mumbai Selection Committee meeting, information about this incident will be taken from the team’s coach, captain and player (Mushir). He also told that former Indian captain and MCA advisor Dilip Vengsarkar will talk to the players and investigate the matter. Vengsarkar, popularly known as ‘Colonel’, was also the former captain of the Mumbai cricket team and was also the chief selector of BCCI at one time.
Not only MCA, but Maharashtra Association will also conduct a similar investigation. In the report, Maharashtra Association Secretary Advocate Kamlesh Pisal said that he is waiting for the report and if the report finds a serious situation then he will talk to both the players. Pisal made it clear that discipline among the players is most important and if any violation of discipline is found in this matter, action will be taken.
This is why there was an argument
Before the start of the Ranji Trophy 2025-26 season, a three-day practice match was played between Mumbai and Maharashtra. This match was special for Shaw because till last season he was a part of Mumbai but this year he changed the team and joined Maharashtra. After this, for the first time he was facing Mumbai. The star opener had scored a century on the very first day of the match, wreaking havoc with his bat, but after getting out, Mushir said something to him, due to which Shaw got enraged and went straight to Mushir.
