Do You Know
Prithvi Shaw first made headlines in 2013 when, as a 14-year-old he scored 546 of 300 balls for the Rizvi Springfield School in the under-16 school tournament in Mumbai.
Shaw is currently the captain of the Indian Under-19 team. He led India to victory at the U-19 World Cup, help in February-2018.
He broke Sachin Tendulkar’s record of being the youngest player to score a century in the Duleep Trophy in 2017.
This young guy is often compared to Sachin Tendulkar, and he seems to be making us believe and creating himself as one of the great for India.
Here’s how Twitter reacted to Shaw’s century on debut:
