apparently it seems hard for these careless mumbai players: vada pav, sarfaraz, Pshaw.

 

Sometime back he did 5+5 = 10 kg 

 

Now progressed to 10+10 = 2kgs

some progress indeed

Scores another hundred, 125* of  76 balls.

 

India is clearly wasting his talent, should be the opener with Gill after Rohit retires from 50 over world cup this year.

Man his fitness seems bad.

I am not a doctor and I don't play one on the internet, but I am wondering if he has to be on steroids for pain management following his injury and that has led to weight gain. It might explain his hair loss too. I am not optimistic, but I just hope he shakes off the rust and starts to contribute to Indian cricket.

shaw can only destroy very weak attacks like Div 2. even in ranjis, he scored 300+ against a super weak team. rest of matches, he was mediocre

Out of the contenders with Gill for opening slot:

 

Y Jaiswal

I Kishan

P Shaw

 

Personally I would go with Shaw, he has more talent, scoring runs at this strike rate requires a lot of talent otherwise everybody will be doing it.

 

He also recently scored a 379 in first class game, not everyone bowling in Ranji trophy is rubbish.

 

There are other overseas county pros applying their trade in division 2 they have not done anything close.

 

Shaw is a Sehwag type player (rare commodity), always should be backed over mediocre over the hill players like Rahane & Pujara in Test team for example.

 

You need good man management skills to sort out Shaw off field issues. BCCI need to work with Shaw.

go look at who shaw scored the 379 against, and then you will see how rubbish that attack was

Only Jaiswal and Sai Sudarshan are true contenders to join Gill as an opener

potentially gaekwad in ODIs.

If the man can score a double hundred and follow that with another hundred, he would be “fit” for cricket purposes. He has the stamina to stay at the crease for long periods of time- hit with power, run between wickets and then do it again in the next game. So he shouldn’t be docked for fitness reasons. Now, I don’t know how he fields, but if there are no bad comments, I guess that means he is doing as well as others in the team.  If he is docked it should be because we think he can’t score against quality bowling.

that is pretty much the main reason, along with his well known attitude issues
