Indiai A and Under-19 coach Rahul Dravid has thrown his weight behind Prithvi Shaw and other promising fringe players, also asking for Yuzvendra Chahal to get more red-ball cricket.

"He has played only 17 or 18 first-class games so even in his white-ball cricket, I wouldn't judge him so quickly because he hasn't played that much. The more he plays the better he will

Hanuma Vihari will never be a Test prospect during the time Kohli runs his reigns unless and until he gets an IPL team and performs there.
