Prithvi Shaw continues his rich vein of form with the opener scoring his maiden triple century in first-class cricket. The young batter has dominated in the Ranji Trophy and excelled against Assam. The 23-year-old star is the only Indian cricketer to score a triple century in the Ranji Trophy, as well as scoring a double ton in Vijay Hazare Trophy and a century in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy.
The Indian international reached his maiden triple hundred in just 326 balls at the Amingaon Cricket Ground in Guwahati. With this knock, the right-handed batter has made a strong statement to break into the national team test side for the upcoming Border Gavaskar Series. India is all set square off against Australia in a four-match Test series which kick starts in Nagpur on 9th February.
