Kevin Pietersen urges Prithvi Shaw to learn from the weight loss trip of Sarfaraz Khan – Inside Sport India

Delhi Capitals (DC) mentor Kevin Pietersen has urged former DC opener Prithvi Shaw to work on his fitness. Pietersen hasn’t worked with Prithvi but everyone in the cricket community acknowledges the talent he possesses. Greg Chappell even wrote an open letter to the talented batter, in the hopes of inspiring Prithvi to change the trajectory of his career.

Prithvi Shaw gets fitness advice

Pietersen has also done the same albeit, in a different fashion. The English great took to X (formerly Twitter) to praise another Mumbai player, Sarfaraz Khan, who shared his fitness journey. Sarfaraz was injured and post that, has tried to get back into shape. He shared that he’s lost 17 kg weight in the past two months at the same time he’s gotten snubbed from India’s Test team.

“Can someone show Prithvi this please? It can be done! Strong body, strong mind!” Pietersen wrote. It was clearly meant for Prithvi who has gained a lot of weight in the last few years and was even criticised for it by Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA).
