He played a devastating inning of 379 runs off 383 balls against Assam for Mumbai in the Ranji Trophy. This is the second-highest individual innings in the history of the Ranji Trophy.

The highest innings record is held by Bhaosaheb Nimbalkar. He played an unbeaten inning of 443 runs for Maharashtra in 1948. It also holds the record for the highest innings by an Indian batsman in first-class cricket. 23-year-old Prithvi Shaw is now second on this list.

The way Prithvi was playing on the second day of the match in Guwahati on Wednesday, a quadruple century seemed a matter of time. That prospect ended with an lbw to spinner Ryan Parag in the over before the lunch break.

Prithvi played five Tests, six ODIs, and one T20 game for India, demanding a place in the team for the upcoming Test series against Australia in this great innings.
