Century on debuts in Ranji and Duleep Trophy

Centurion Shaw emulates Tendulkar, Sep 26 2017: The Times of India

A tango under the lights by Prithvi Shaw and Dinesh Karthik put India Red in the driver's seat against India Blue on the opening day of their Duleep Trophy final.

Both scored chan celess hundreds and were involved in a 211 run partnership for the third wicket as the Reds closed the day at 317 for five on Monday . But it was Shaw who once again showed why he is being hailed as an emerging force, by compiling a fine 154 to grab the spotlight.

Shaw's debut century put him in a select group with Sachin Tendulkar and Deepak Hooda, both of whom have scored centuries on their debuts in both the Ranji Trophy and Duleep Trophy. Shaw became the second youngest after Tendulkar to score a Duleep debut century . Tendulkar had also scored a century in his first Irani Trophy match.
