The management can consider replacing Shankar with Shaw

Vijay Shankar has failed to get going this IPL and has scored just 16 runs in 16 balls without a boundary or a six which has impacted the final result of the game. Surprisingly, Shankar has not bowled a single over this season. Thus it would make sense to play a batsman in place of Shankar who can turn the game in the middle overs. The management has the option of Prithvi Shaw and Manjot Kalra, who can replace Shankar.

While both Shaw and Kalra are primarily openers and were successful in the U 19 World Cup, if selected they would have to bat in the middle order only considering that Delhi have a lot of openers to choose from i.e. Pant, Maxwell, Maxwell, Roy and Munro.

The IPL will be a perfect platform for youngsters to showcase their talent on the biggest T20 league and make a name for themselves at this level too.
