Legends and pundits react as BCCI bans Prithvi Shaw for doping violation
BCCI suspended Prithvi Shaw for 'inadvertently' taking banned substance under the World Anti-Doping Agency code after the National dope testing laboratory detected Terbutaline in his urine sample. The young and talented, however, found sympathy and encouragement from the cricketing fraternity.
Black day for Prithvi Shaw!!
Indian cricket needs to handle Prithvi Shaw carefully and set him on the right path. This is a kid who has achieved success the hard way.

Big halt to his career!!
He gets a test century on debut , then a leg injury just before the vital Australia tests. And now this, one stupid OTC cough syrup consumed by mistake takes away 3 more months. Poor kid ends up missing more than a year of international cricket. https://t.co/lBoXdVD8yB
