4 rising stars International cricket unearthed in 2018

#3 Prithvi Shaw - India - Age 19

Can Prithvi Shaw continue his rich vein of form in the upcoming series against Australia?

Prithvi Shaw came to limelight when he scored 546 runs in a Haris Shield elite division match in November 2013. Post that, he continued his good performance and rose up multiple levels. He captained India U19 team and led them to the glory in February 2018.

The 19-year-old Mumbai opening batsman made his debut for India on 4th October 2018 and scored a scintillating hundred in his first innings. He also became the youngest batsman (18 years and 329 days) in the history of Indian Cricket to make a Test 100 on debut.

Shawa also scored a quick-fire fifty in the second Test and helped India to win the series comfortably. He was also named as the 'Player of the Series'.

Prithvi Shaw will be looking to prove his worth during India's visit to Australia where they will be playing a four-match Test series in November/December.
