The emergence of Prithvi Shaw has been nothing less than a fairy tale story. From the world record 546 runs in the Harris Shield Cup to Under-19 World Cup, triumph the journey has been incredible.
Prithvi has an outstanding First-Class record and has already scored seven centuries. In 14 matches, he has scored 1418 runs at an amazing average of 56.72. He performed exceptionally well in the recent Test series against South Africa A where he scored 136 runs.
