Sapna Gill has reportedly claimed that Shaw hit her on her chest and arms. It was previously reported that she wanted selfies with the star Indian player and that they had an argument over the matter. However, Gill said that she neither knew Shaw nor did she ask for selfies with him. Shaw is yet to comment on the controversy, though.

The IPL 2023 season begins on March 31, with Shaw's team Delhi Capitals scheduled to face the Lucknow Super Giants in an evening game at the Bharat Ratna Shree Atal Bihari Vajpayee Stadium on April 1.

The Delhi Capitals management and Shaw will hope to end this controversy as soon as possible and shift their focus to IPL 2023. DC will be without the services of regular captain Rishabh Pant this year.

Even senior opener David Warner is struggling with injuries and is ruled out of the rest of Australia's ongoing tour of India. In Pant and Warner's imminent absence, Shaw will be one of the key players for DC in IPL 2023.
