MUMBAI: Legendary Australian batsman Mark Waugh thinks that the methodology of young batsman Prithvi Shaw is similar to that of cricket icon Sachin Tendulkar.
"The first thing you notice is his technique, it's very similar to Sachin Tendulkar's," Waugh used to be quoted as announcing in a media unlock.
"His grip, his stance, he stays very still at the crease and plays all his shots around the wicket. He plays the ball quite late and is quite punchy in his stroke play and has an excellent base to play any shot from any bowler. He's just so much like Sachin Tendulkar," added Waugh, who performed 128 Tests for Australia and scored 8,029 runs.
Mumbai's Shaw, who plays for Delhi Daredevils in the ongoing Indian Premier League, has scored 140 runs at a strike fee of 166.66 in the four video games he has performed to this point.
Shaw, who is solely over 18, hit a maiden half-century in his 2d fit of the IPL and the knock made him the joint-youngest cricketer to record a half-century in the cash-rich cricket event.
The Daredevils are lately languishing at the sixth spot having gained best three in their 9 video games.
