New Zealand speedster Trent Boult heaped praise on young Prithvi Shaw, saying that the right-handed Mumbai batsman has a promising career ahead. Shaw gave glimpses of his immense talent, scoring 66 off 780 balls, to help Board President's XI comfortably beat New Zealand by 30 runs in their opening warm-up game, here. "I heard he was 17, I couldn't quite believe it. He played very nicely. I think the ball swung around nicely at the start, and it didn't seem to trouble him. "He's probably one of many who has a promising career ahead of him, if all things go well. But very impressed from the first look," said Boult.
