Do you believe Prithvi Shaw can make a successful comeback in cricket?<\/p>\n

“When things go awry and you drift away, you need that mentor, who can light a spark into you. He still believes in me. He said ‘Prithvi, I still believe in you, and I’ll continue to do so’. Because he has seen me grow up. Even today, he tells me ‘Sahi track pe aa ja, jaise pehle tha’ (Come back on the same track as earlier). Everything is possible in the next 13-14 years. So he believes in me and that means a lot.”<\/p>\n
