“Prithvi is ready to go,” Shastri said, clearing the air on the opener’s fitness.
Christchurch: Young opener Prithvi Shaw has recovered from a foot injury and is “ready to go” in the second and final Test against New Zealand starting here on Saturday, India head coach Ravi Shastri has said. Shaw missed Thursday’s training session due to swelling on his left foot, increasing the Indian team management’s worries ahead of the second Test.

Shaw had a poor outing in the first Test in Wellington, getting dismissed cheaply in both the innings. Tim Southee got him for 16 with an unplayable delivery in the first innings. He also found Trent Boult’s short ball difficult to negotiate when he was on 14 in the second essay.
