Mumbai: India opener Prithvi Shaw has sought a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) with a wish to leave Mumbai and play for another team in the upcoming 2025/26 domestic cricket season.
“Yes it’s true that Prithvi Shaw has applied for a No Objection Certificate (NOC) & our Apex Council will take decision by today evening,” said Abhay Hadap, Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) Secretary, to IANS on Monday afternoon.
Shaw, who captained India to 2018 U19 Men’s Cricket World Cup win in New Zealand, was dropped from the Mumbai side during the first leg of last year’s Ranji Trophy in October because of form and fitness-related issues.
He was then brought back into the team during their victorious 2024 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy (SMAT) campaign, where he amassed 197 runs in nine games at a strike rate of 156.34. But after that, Shaw, 25, wasn’t included in Mumbai’s squad for the Vijay Hazare Trophy (VHT). IANS
