Prithvi Shaw Caught Cruising in His BMW in the Midst of IPL 2025 Laxity

Prithvi Shaw, young Indian cricketer once heralded as brilliant legaspsire, has been creating news in recent days for reasons unrelated to cricket. The 24-year-old was taunted a while back with his friends in his expensive BMW, and the moment instantly became viral on social media platforms. Shaw, Indian cricket's brightest star, has had his career tainted by a series of disappointments. The latest was during the IPL 2025 auction when he went unsold, again bringing to the fore his issues due to fitness issues and inconsistent performances. Was a star player, Shaw's career faltered in recent years, and it seems his IPL 2025 stint was the last nail in his place in Indian cricket today.

Shaw's latest action for professional cricket was in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2024, where his batting was below par. Despite his massive talent, Shaw let everyone down, and hence he was not picked for the Mumbai Cricket team. His issues with form and physical fitness have been amply documented over the past few years, and the IPL 2025 mega auction was another reminder that things have not quite panned out as expected for him. Even though he had once been considered a hot talent, things have not gone smoothly for Shaw, and his remaining unsold in the IPL auction supplied further fire to speculations regarding his future in cricket.

In the viral video, Shaw was seen driving in his BMW surrounded by a group of friends. A couple of fans walked up to him, and the cricketer was also accompanied by a couple of cameramen who videotaped the scene. Shaw's personal life seems to be in the public eye, but his career has taken a backseat for the moment. The video got a number of reactions on the internet, and quite a lot of people talked about how low Shaw has fallen from the promising role. Despite all this, Shaw is still a topic of contention, and his supporters are optimistic that he can still return to his former self.

Meanwhile, the 2025 IPL season has also witnessed impressive performances from other cricketing players. For instance, there is 14-year-old Bihar boy Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who is the first Indian player to have achieved the fastest century in the IPL. Suryavanshi, representing Rajasthan Royals, broke a record by crushing a 101 off a mere 38 balls in a match against Gujarat Titans. His great achievement came within a mere 35 deliveries, shattering Yusuf Pathan's 15-year record. Suryavanshi’s performance has been lauded as a new chapter for Indian cricket, and he has quickly become one of the most talked-about young talents in the game.

The Bihar Chief Minister, Nitish Kumar, was quick to congratulate Suryavanshi for his record-breaking century. He announced a cash reward of Rs 10 lakh for the young batter, highlighting how proud the state is of his achievement. Suryavanshi’s success story has captured the imagination of cricket fans across the country, and his future seems very bright. He achieved the feat at just 14 years of age, becoming the youngest player to achieve a century in IPL history, and his innings was hailed as an absolute milestone in Indian cricket.

In a motivational move, Nitish Kumar disclosed that he had met Suryavanshi and his father for the first time in 2024, and he had faith in the potential of the young player. The Chief Minister later called Suryavanshi following the record-breaking knock and congratulated him personally. He also wished Suryavanshi to keep breaking new records for the Indian national team and bringing more glory to the country.

Suryavanshi's story also made headlines because of his massive IPL contract. Rajasthan Royals bought the youngster at the IPL 2025 auction for a record Rs 1.1 crore, the youngest player to sign an IPL contract. The deal not only speaks volumes about his massive potential but also offers a glimpse of the rosy future that awaits him in Indian cricket. His achievement comes at a time when some players, like Shaw, are struggling to make a mark, showing that talent can shine through despite challenges.

While Shaw's recent struggles highlight the unpredictable nature of a cricketer’s journey, Suryavanshi’s rise serves as a reminder of the young talent that India has in abundance. His success is an added layer of hope for Indian cricket, especially for the fans who might be disillusioned by the non-emergence of young heroes into the national team. For Shaw, though, things are not clear, but with the right support, there might still be a chance for him to regain his form and return to the team.
