A young Mumbai lad who lead India U19 to World Cup victory in 2018 is the latest and the youngest entrant in this list. Prithvi Shaw had a prolific run in domestic cricket scoring centuries on Ranji Trophy debut, Duleep Trophy debut and now in the Test debut.

He made noises in the Indian domestic circuit with his run-scoring abilities and proved that in IPL and the India A games. His performance got him his Test cap against the Windies in the home series.

He started brilliantly and went onto score a 99-ball hundred which was lauded by everyone. He was looking good for a big one but eventually got out at 134. His 99-ball hundred is the third fastest century by a player in his debut Test match.
