Teenage sensation Prithvi Shaw has earned a maiden call-up to the Mumbai squad for their Ranji Trophy semi-final encounter against Tamil Nadu.

Shaw made the news in 2013 when, as a 14-year-old, slammed 546 runs from 330 balls in a Harris Shield match. It was a world record for the highest score by an Indian batsman in minor cricket before being broken by Pranav Dhanawade earlier this year.

Shaw, now 17, recently represented the victorious India U-19 team at the ACC U-19 Asia Cup. He notched up 191 runs at an average of 38.20 during the five matches.

The inclusion of Shaw for Kevin d’Almeida is the only change from the 15-man squad that overcame Hyderabad in the quarter-final.

The defending champions will continue to be without the experienced trio of Ajinkya Rahane, Rohit Sharma and Dhawal Kulkarni – all of whom are still recovering from injuries.
