Times have not been easy for Shaw who was dropped from the India team around 2 years back. However, he strengthened his chances of an India recall in the upcoming New Zealand and Australia series after smashing a maiden triple century in the domestic Ranji Trophy tournament. The 23-year-old Mumbai right-hand batsman scored 379 off 382 balls, the second-highest individual score in the domestic circuit, on day two of the four-day group match against Assam.
Shaw has represented India in five Tests, six one-day internationals and one Twenty20 but his last international outing was in July 2021 against Sri Lanka.
