The focus will firmly be on Prithvi Shaw and the national selectors keeping a Hawk Eye on Mumbai captain`s performance as his team takes on Uttar Pradesh in the Vijay Hazare Trophy final on Sunday. Shaw`s stupendous 754 runs in the tournament, which includes 105 not out, 227 not out, 185 not out and 165, has made him a contender for a comeback during the three ODIs, in case Rohit Sharma avails the option of taking rest.
It`s still not clear whether that will happen or not but the 21-year-old Shaw, has certainly learnt his on and off-field lessons well which has showed in his consistency during the National One Day Championships. He is a cut above others at the domestic level and it is difficult for the national selectors to keep him out of the mix. For Uttar Pradesh, a very steady outfit under coach Gyanendra Pandey, they have played solid cricket without being spectacular with a young captain Karan Sharma leading the team well. Their left arm pacer Yash Dayal might fancy bringing the ball back in to check out whether Shaw`s problems against inswingers have been sorted.
