#2 Prithvi Shaw:

Prithvi Shaw has made huge strides this year. He captained the India under-19 team to victory in the ICC under 19 World Cup in New Zealand for a record 4th time. In the World Cup he became the highest scoring Indian Captain at the Under 19 world cup, scoring runs at an average of 65.25.
Since then he has been in exceptional form for the Mumbai team as well as the India A team. He recently made his debut for the senior team in Test cricket against the Windies. He stamped his authority in the test series and was declared the 'Player of the Tournament.' On returning from national duty to play the semifinals for Mumbai against Hyderabad, he showcased why he's been the talk of the town as he scored a quick fire 50 in less than 35 balls as he got Mumbai off to a flier in the semifinals of the Vijay Hazare Trophy.
Having been compared to the likes of Virender Sehwag, Sachin Tendulkar, and Brian Lara he's been the talk of the cricketing world.
