Prithvi Shaw burst onto the cricket scene as a teenager, with a string of impressive performances in domestic cricket and a memorable debut for the Indian national team. His aggressive batting style, which blends power and finesse, has drawn comparisons to some of the all-time greats of the game. However, despite his initial promise, Shaw's career has been marked by inconsistency and discipline issues, which have limited his opportunities at the international level. As a result, he has not been included in the BCCI's central contract list for 2025-26, a decision that reflects his limited international appearances in recent seasons. Shaw's international caps are limited, and he has had to rely on match fees, which are approximately ₹15 lakh per Test, ₹6 lakh per ODI, and ₹3 lakh per T20I, to supplement his income. In addition to his match fees, Shaw has also earned money through endorsements, with brands such as MRF, Adidas, and several regional and digital brands partnering with him. His endorsement income is estimated to be in the range of ₹2-5 crore per year, although the exact figures are not publicly disclosed. Shaw has also been reported to have interests in lifestyle and fitness-adjacent spaces, although no confirmed business entity or investment has been officially disclosed.
