Delhi Capitals head coach Ricky Ponting has revealed that Prithvi Shaw refused to bat in the nets when he hit a bad patch in the last IPL and hoped that the highly-rated Indian youngster has changed his training habits “for the better” ahead of the upcoming edition.

The former Australian skipper has been working with Shaw, 21, for the past two seasons in the Delhi Capitals camp. He recalled how Shaw simply refused to pad up for nets when, after scoring two fifties last season, he was hit by a slump.
