"When I was four, I started playing cricket. My father didn't know about cricket. Then one of my father's friend advised him to take me to a coaching camp. It was based in Virar. I earlier used to stay in Virar and I was coached by Santosh Pingulkar. Now I train under Raju Pathak and also at the MIG," Prithvi stated. Unlike boys of his age, who are playing in D division onwards in Mumbai's famous Kanga League, Prithvi has already played in the A division and scored a century. "I was very happy to score a hundred in the A division because it wasn't easy to play against those guys. I managed to keep my patience and hit the loose balls over there. I played few games before that and wasn't having a good time there. I was getting out after scoring 30s and 40s."
