Shaw needs to be more disciplined off the field: Jaffer

TIL Desk Sports/  Former India opener and domestic stalwart Wasim Jaffer compared Prithvi Shaw to the great Virender Sehwag but also said the Mumbaikar needs a more disciplined lifestyle off the field.

After an impressive Test debut against the West Indies, Shaw was handed an eight-month ban for a doping violation last year. After the completion of the ban, he returned to competitive cricket and played during India’s tour of New Zealand earlier this year.

“I also feel his lifestyle off the field, he (Shaw) needs to probably get more disciplined there. He has the game to succeed at the international level but he needs to be a lot more disciplined outside cricket also,” Jaffer told former India opener Aakash Chopra on the latter’s youtube channel.
