Highlights
Shaw finished with 827 runs, highest scorer in Vijay Hazare Trophy
Shaw-led Mumbai beat Uttar Pradesh on Sunday to win the title
He had no option but to go back to drawing board, rectify his mistakes and come back stronger like never before which Mumbai captain Prithvi Shaw did with aplomb after being dropped from the Indian team. After a disastrous Adelaide Test, the former India U-19 captain was benched for the next three Tests and then dropped from the national team for the England series. However it did wonders for the right-hander, who created a national record in Mumbai s Vijay Hazare triumph, ending with 827 runs in the tournament. It was a bit difficult but you know, my only thing was go-back and work hard, just those small mistakes, what was happening in Australia, just to fill those blanks and come back stronger, Shaw said at the post match presentation when asked how did he come back strong after the Australia tour.

Shaw (73 off 39 balls; 10x4, 4x6) and fellow opener Yashasvi Jaiswal (29; 3x4; 1x6) gave the side an aggressive start by conjuring 89 runs in 9.1 overs.
Shaw started with a cover-drive, off left arm seamer Yash Dayal. He got a life on 5, after being dropped by Karan Sharma at mid-off, and he then smashed three fours in the second over off Aaqib Khan.
He then took on Dayal, hammering two boundaries and a six over mid-wicket, his trademark pull-shot, as Mumbai raced to 32/0 after three overs.
Shaw continued his onslaught and notched up his 50 in only 30 balls, with a six, another pull shot, but then holed in the deep off Shivam Mavi when another hundred looked imminent.
