Team India: Border Gavaskar Trophy is being played between India and Australia in Ahmedabad. In the last Test match of the series, the Indian team seems to be fighting very hard for victory. The ticket to the final of the World Test Championship depends on India’s success in the fourth Test match. Amid this Test series, India must also play three ODIs against the Kangaroos.
Team India has also been announced for the ODI series, but Prithvi Shaw’s luck will shine due to the player’s injury. It is expected that he can be included in the team as an option.
Prithvi Shaw Will Return To Team India
Prithvi Shaw, who has been working hard for a long time to make his place in the Indian team, looks like his luck will shine. The 23-year-old Shaw debuted for India but could not return after being dropped from the group. Shaw was selected in the recently played T20 series but could not get a chance to play 11.

But now it seems that a place is being made in his team. Before the ODI series against Australia, Team India’s two-star players, KL Rahul and Shreyas Iyer, are seen to be out of the ODI series due to injury. In such a situation, Shaw can be included in the team as an explosive opener. Let us tell you that Shaw played his last ODI against Sri Lanka in the year 2021.
