5 sacrifices endured by Prithvi Shaw and his father that helped him earn his India cap

England Lions v India A - Day Two

#4 No family vacations, treats with Chinese food

Enter

Throughout Prithvi's childhood, he did not have a single holiday. Each and every day of his life was dedicated to cricket. He and his father did not go for a single family vacation. On occasions like birthdays or days when Prithvi played well, Pankaj and Prithvi went outside to have a hearty Chinese meal.

They compromised and sacrificed a whole lot of family vacations and holidays, in order to prioritize the bigger picture of Prithvi being the best he can at the game of cricket.
