Kaif didn’t sugarcoat his words while criticizing the former DC batter. He further said that Prithvi Shaw must feel embarrassed after not getting picked in such a big event. In a conversation with JioCinema, Kaif said: "Delhi has backed Prithvi Shaw a lot. DC had hoped that he is a powerplay player and would hit 6 boundaries in one over. And he did that too. He hit Shivam Mavi for 6 fours in an over. He had a lot of potential and DC backed him to the hilt. We always thought that if Shaw manages to score, we will win. And we gave him a lot of chances.” Kaif further added: "There were meetings in the night where we would sit and ponder if Prithvi should play or not because he has been failing. So at night we would decide that Prithvi would not be in the playing XI, and then later on the day of the match, we would change our decision - that, no he will because maybe if he goes big, we would win.” Prithvi Shaw who listed himself at the base price of INR 75 Lakh went unsold in the mega auction.
