Talented Mumbai opener, Prithvi Shaw, has reached the UK for his maiden county stint, overcoming logistical delays concerning travel documents.
Northamptonshire County Cricket Club’s CEO, Ray Payne, confirmed Shaw’s arrival, expressing enthusiasm for his one-day cup debut on August 4.
The BCCI granted Shaw a No Objection Certificate, allowing him to skip the ongoing Deodhar Trophy and focus on the county assignment. Earlier uncertainties surrounding Shaw’s participation were dispelled with the CEO’s announcement.
The 23-year-old cricketer, known for his impressive debut against West Indies, seeks to revive his career after facing setbacks. Shaw will join the Northamptonshire Steelbacks, becoming the fourth Indian player to sign with a county this season. Fans anticipate his performance, hoping this experience will pave the way for an international comeback.
