Shaw hits half-century on debut

October 04, 2018 10:58

India 1st inns: 89-1 (18 ovs) vs WI | Scorecard

Off-spinner Roston Chase comes into the attack. Shaw punches a short ball to deep point for one and Pujara hits the fifth ball to long-on for another single and his partner does the same last ball to retain strike.

In the next over, Shaw hits Bishoo to long-off for one before Pujara pulls a short ball behind square on the leg side for a four to continue the flow of runs.

Shaw cuts a short ball from Chase to deep point for two runs followed by a single to long-on to race to his fifty, from 56 balls. A dream start for the 18-year-old as he hits an entertaining fifty in his first ever innings in Tests, with some dazzling strokeplay.

Pujara also looks in the mood as he clips Chase off his pads through midwicket for a four.
