Shaw managed scores of 0 and 4 in the two innings against Australia in the Pink Ball Test in Adelaide which ended on Saturday following India's horrifying collapse.

With figures of 0 and 4 against Australia in his last two batting outings, Shaw's grim run with the bat continued with yet another below-par performance this year.

Shaw's dreadful form with the bat continued as the youngster registered 0 and 4 in the first and second innings respectively.

Former Australian leg-spinning great Shane Warne was critical of Shaw, saying that he will "struggle at this level" with his batting technique.

In his first Test against West Indies back in 2018, Shaw had become the youngest Indian batsman to score a century on debut.

With scores of 0 and 4 in two innings, Shaw might be shown the exit door in the subsequent Test, with Shubman Gill and KL Rahul waiting in line to break into the starting squad.

The legendary cricketer says Indian players are in Christmas mood after Prithvi Shaw and Jasprit Bumrah drop sitters.

Shaw has been failing consistently over the past couple of months and was even dropped from the Delhi Capitals (DC) side at one point during the Indian Premier League (IPL).

Sunil Gavaskar was critical of Prithvi Shaw and Mayank Agarwal after their failures in the first innings of the Pink Ball Test.

Ricky Ponting accurately predicted Prithvi Shaw's dismissal during his commentary stint in the 1st Test in Adelaide.

Mitchell Starc exploited Prithvi Shaw's weak footwork as the batsman was dismissed on the second delivery of the first Test in Adelaide.

Nehra feels it makes sense to start Rahul with Mayank Agarwal ahead of Prithvi Shaw or Shubman Gill.

Virat Kohli-led Indian side is set to begin its title defence of the Border-Gavaskar trophy with the pink-ball Test in Adelaide from December 17.

Earlier, India managed to gather 247/9 after skipper Ajinkya Rahane elected to bat first after winning the toss.

It was a poor start in whites for India's young opening duo, as both Gill and Shaw were dismissed for ducks.

Prithvi had opened for India in the two-match Test series against New Zealand earlier this year where he scored 98 runs with one half-century score. 

Former Indian cricketer and commentator Sanjay Manjrekar had a word of caution for Shaw as the youngster continues to struggle with his form.

Vaughan further also highlighted that Shaw might not be as good as everyone says if he fails to achieve his rhythm soon. 

Despite needing a break, the explosive opener wasn't ousted from the playing XI. He instead was made the captain of the national side.

Shaw has been criticised for playing far too many strokes in the air by former cricketers.
