Prithvi Shaw stumbled on wickets to get dismissed in a bizarre way on his Royal London One-Day Cup on Friday, August 4. The young Indian batter struggled to make an impact on his first stint in England’s domestic List A cricket as he scored just 34 runs off 35 balls. To note, Shaw was recently dropped from the Indian T20 squad and also did not fared well in the IPL 2023.

Northamptonshire lost the match by 23 runs
As mentioned above, DC batter failed to convert a good start into a big knock as he lost his control after missing a fierce bouncer from the Dutch pacer Paul van Meekeren in the 16the over. Shaw hit the stumps on his way down and was given out on hit-wicket.
After Shaw’s bizarre dismissal, Northamptonshire captain Lewis McManus and bowler Tom Taylor added 84 runs for the seventh wicket to drag Northamptonshire close to a sensational win. But they fell 23 runs short despite a brilliant century from Taylor and an admirable fight from the lower order.
Northamptonshire had announced Shaw’s arrival for his maiden stint in the English county circuit through Twitter recently. “It’s a great opportunity for me and I’m really thankful to Northamptonshire for giving me this chance to express myself here,” Shaw was quoted as saying in a media release.
