Ignored in IPL, out-of-favour India star Prithvi Shaw smashes 75 off 34 vs Suryakumar Yadav's team in Mumbai T20 league
Since scoring a sensational century on Test debut, which saw former India head coach Ravi Shastri compare him to Sachin Tendulkar, Virender Sehwag, and Brian Lara, Prithvi Shaw's career has witnessed a sharp decline. At the same time, he did make an effort to launch a comeback, fitness issues and off-field controversies added to his misfortune. His latest setback came in November last year when he went unsold at the IPL mega-auction, which was preceded by an omission from the Mumbai Ranji Trophy squad. However, on Monday, Shaw showed the first signs of making an effort to find his form yet again, when he smashed 75 runs off just 34 balls, leading the North Mumbai Panthers to victory over Suryakumar Yadav's Triumph Knights Mumbai North East in the ongoing Mumbai T20 League. This was his first fifty in the tournament after managing scores of 5, 5, 33, and 19 in four innings. En route to his knock, comprising 12 fours and three sixes, Shaw also stitched a 62-run stand for the second wicket alongside Arjun Jaiswal (nine off 12), before being supported by Harshal Jadhav (46 off 30) in a 30-run stand for the next wicket. Shaw's knock helped his team set a formidable target of 208 runs. In reply, Triumph Knights were bowled out for 169 runs. In other matches held at Wankhede Stadium, the Eagle Thane Strikers triumphed over ARCS Andheri, while the SOBO Mumbai Falcons secured a win against Aakash Tigers MWS. The T20 Mumbai League 2025 league stage wrapped up with high-octane action, setting the stage for the much-anticipated semifinals on June 10 at Wankhede Stadium. The top four teams—Bandra Blasters, Eagle Thane Strikers, SoBo Mumbai Falcons, and Mumbai South Central Maratha Royals—will clash in the semifinals. The semifinals will be played at the Wankhede Stadium on June 10, followed by the grand finale on June 12 at the same venue.

Vinod Kambli vs Prithvi Shaw: Who is richer? Know their net worth
In this collection of visuals, we'll know the wealth of two Indian cricket professionals: Vinod Kambli, an ex-India cricketer, and Prithvi Shaw, who continues to push for a comeback to the national lineup. Let's know who boasts a larger net fortune. Vinod Kambli and Prithvi Shaw are talented Indian players who have faced setbacks in their professional journeys. Vinod Kambli made a strong start to his international journey but found it difficult to sustain his performance following the 1996 World Cup semi-final. Many feel that issues outside of cricket may have impacted the trajectory of his career. Prithvi Shaw was previously celebrated as the rising star of Indian cricket, but his career has seen a noticeable downturn in recent times. Several observers link his slump to issues unrelated to the game. Vinod Kambli's first marriage ended badly, and people came to know about his money problems. He was known for living a flashy life, but after he stopped playing international cricket, he had trouble handling his finances. Problems and headlines seemed to always be around him. Prithvi Shaw was in the news not because of his cricket, but because of an argument with a social media star outside a hotel. This event added more trouble to his already struggling career. Prithvi Shaw went unsold in the IPL 2025 auction. He was let go by Delhi Capitals and also removed from the Mumbai Ranji Trophy team. Even though he was once considered a promising young player, Shaw's issues with form and fitness have caused his value to drop. Former Indian cricketer Vinod Kambli's wealth has dropped considerably from over 8.48 crore rupees, and now he relies on a monthly pension of 30,000 rupees from the BCCI. Sunil Gavaskar's CHAMPS Foundation is helping Vinod Kambli with money and medical support. They are giving him a monthly payment of Rs 30,000 for life, along with Rs 30,000 every year for medical expenses. This assistance came after Gavaskar met Kambli and understood his health issues. Prithvi Shaw, the 25-year-old Indian cricketer, is estimated to have a net worth of around Rs 35 crores. His main source of monthly income comes from his successful cricket career, earning between Rs 37 lakh and Rs 40 lakh. Shaw's rising popularity in Indian cricket is reflected in his strong financial position.
