Prithvi Shaw has been long touted as the next big thing that has happened to India and he just proved the same when he delighted everyone with his maiden century on debut although against a mediocre West Indies bowling attack and that too in the home conditions.

He is yet to be tested in overseas conditions at least wearing national colors as he has already played many A tours in the past. With due to an unfortunate ankle injury he sustained in a practice match before the Test series against Australia, Prithvi's chances of adding to the 2 Tests he played is a little postponed.

But it is sure that he will be a long-term prospect for India and one the team can invest on. His first-class record is extraordinary as he averages more than 60 in 18 matches with 8 centuries.

Just like Shubman Gill and Kamlesh Nagarkoti, he was a major factor in India's triumph in the 2018 Under-19 World Cup where he captained the team. He looks all set to carry the legacy forward.
