A child prodigy, Shaw was known for his batting prowess for Mumbai, scoring tons of runs in first-class cricket and is known for making any debut special. He hit a ton on his Ranji Trophy and Duleep Trophy debut, a feat only achieved by Sachin Tendulkar.

Prithvi was known to the world when he led India to win a record U-19 trophy in New Zealand. Besides his batting abilities, he is also a calm and composed leader. Under the guidance of Rahul Dravid, Shaw has contributed immensely. The youngster was roped in by Delhi Daredevils in 2018 and played a few good knocks in the T20 tournament. It was evident that he would receive a call up from the Indian side and finally, it did, once Shikhar Dhawan had a poor outing in England, Shaw ceased the opportune moment by hitting a ton on his maiden Test debut against West Indies.
