Ranji Trophy 2022-23: Prithvi Shaw, a Mumbai batsman, has once more stolen the show after hitting his second double-century against Assam in the current Ranji Trophy match. Since being dropped from the national squad, Shaw has been making waves on the domestic front. When it mattered most in the Ranji Trophy, the right-handed hitter let his bat speak for itself.
Prithvi has been absent from the national team for a while now. The national selectors may wish to consider the 23-year-old for a spot in the Indian team given his recent steady performances in the domestic circuit.
Shaw smashed his century before lunch break off just 107 deliveries after Assam invited Mumbai to bat first. He did this by taking on the bowlers with a barrage of boundaries. At the end of Day 1, he and Mumbai’s captain Ajinkya Rahane had helped Mumbai reach 397 for two. With 240 runs from 283 balls and 33 fours and a six, Shaw is still unbeaten.
Rahane, on the other hand, performed admirably, scoring an undefeated 73 off 140 deliveries. He’ll be eager to turn this knock into a significant score.
After the youngster shattered his double century, here is how Twitter reacted:

Mumbai’s domination continues, as @PrithviShaw sparkles with a magnificent 240 not out,strike rate of 84.81, 33 fours and 1 maximum, making the Assam bowlers look very ordinary in the middle. His mind set, confidence are top notch, doing what he does best. #RanjiTrophy #MUMVsASM

Prithvi Shaw is undoubtedly making a case for his inclusion in the Indian squad for the forthcoming Test series against Australia, even though he will try to turn his innings into a triple-century on Wednesday (January 11). Beginning on February 9, a test series between Australia and India is planned.
