IPL 2019: 5 players who can win the 'Emerging Player of the Year' award

3. Prithvi Shaw

CA XI v India - International 4-Day Tour Match: Day 2

This young lad from Mumbai has been making noise in the cricket arena for quite some time now. He has already started his international cricket career against West Indies where he scored a century in his debut match. He was a bit unlucky to get injured before the Australian Test series.

Now he is fully fit and is ready to partner with Shikhar Dhawan and would want to take his team to the podium. Everyone around the world knows about his cricketing talent. Prithvi Shaw made his IPL debut last year but only managed to play 9 matches in the season. In those 9 matches, he scored 245 runs with an amazing strike rate of 153.

Prithvi Shaw would want this to be his breakthrough IPL season and would also want to turn the tides for his franchise Delhi Capitals. He would definitely be a tough competitor for others in the race to win the Emerging Player of the Season award.
