Mumbai batsman Prithvi Shaw knocked on the selectors’ door once again
after he smacked his maiden double hundred in just 174 balls on Day 3
of the Ranji Trophy match against Baroda at the Reliance Stadium in
Vadodara.
Prithivi Shaw played in his natural attacking style, and completed his 9th first-class ton in just 84 deliveries.
Prithivi Shaw continued to plunder Baroda’s bowling attack and added 102 runs in the next 94 balls, before he was dismissed by Bhargav Bhatt for 202.
Prithivi Shaw had also scored a half century in the first innings (66 runs in 62 balls). On the back of his performance, Mumbai extended their lead to 533 runs, before declaring the innings.
Prithivi Shaw was given a six-month ban for doping violation earlier this year. He made a return to cricket at the recently-concluded Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy as he impressed in the T20 tournament by scoring three half centuries in five matches.
Now, Prithivi Shaw has once again put his name in the hat for selection in the upcoming Test series against New Zealand with a quickfire double ton in the Ranji opener. Shaw’s double ton is the third-fastest ever in Ranji Trophy history, only next to Ravi Shastri’s 123-ball double hundred and Rajesh Bohra’s 156-ball double-ton.
