India’s new sensation Prithvi Shaw surpassed legend Sachin Tendulkar after notching up a brilliant century to take India Red to 258 for 2 on Day One of Duleep Trophy 2017-18 final against India Blue. The 17-year-old became the youngest player to score a century on Duleep Trophy debut, the record was previously held by none other than Sachin Tendulkar.

Shaw earlier this year made his Ranji Trophy debut, at 17 years and 57 days, became the second youngest from Mumbai, after Tendulkar, to hit a century. Tendulkar had scored centuries in all three domestic tournaments before turning 18, meaning Shaw needs to score a century to equal the legend.

Shaw came into the limelight after he scored an astonishing 546 off 330 balls at a school match in Mumbai, recording the third highest score in any form of cricket. The Mumbai batsman has played two first-class matches so far, scoring 239 runs at an average of 59.75. He has one century and one half-century to his name.
