Prithvi Shaw Should Not Be Sent To England Now, Says Kapil Dev

By IANS News July 04, 2021 • 13:57 PM View: 2027

Former India skipper Kapil Dev feels the Indian cricket board should not think of sending an opener to England if the team has to look at a replacement for the injured Shubman Gill ahead of the five-Test series against England in August-September this year.

There is speculation that Prithvi Shaw, who is on the white-ball tour of Sri Lanka, could be sent to England as a backup opener.
