Prithvi Shaw is back. And how! After serving an eight-month ban for consuming a banned substance, Mumbai's Shaw slammed a 39-ball, match-winning 63 against Assam in a T20 Mushtaq Ali Trophy game at the Wankhede Stadium on Sunday.
Shaw's knock, laced with seven fours and two sixes, helped the hosts register an 83-run win in their last league game. Shrugging off their shocking loss to Meghalaya on Friday, Mumbai thus returned to their winning ways (five wins on the trot before Friday) to top Group 'D' with 24 points.
