Mumbai batsman Prithvi Shaw has had an opportunity to open the innings with different players while representing different teams.

He plays for Delhi Capitals in the Indian Premier League (IPL) and he got to open with Shikhar Dhawan, who was included in the side in 2019 after being traded from Sunrisers Hyderabad.

Shaw, in a live chat with Delhi Capitals, admitted that his favorite opener is Dhawan and the reason is their understanding after being paired up for the most number of times.

“Shikhar Dhawan because I have opened with him most,” Shaw said during the Instagram live session.

In the year 2018, Shaw had to open with different partners throughout the season. Sometimes it was Colin Munro, Glenn Maxwell, Jason Roy, or even Shreyas Iyer, the captain.
