Shaw, who is managed by Sunil Gavaskar's Professional Management Group, crossed 50 for the first time over the last weekend in difficult conditions even while wickets fell at the other end during a run chase of 205, said a release from PMG.
Shaw's contributions included a valuable 42 not out in his first home game against Scarborough CC. He has also starred with the ball against Harrogate CC, another Yorkshire club of great tradition, by taking 5 wickets while defending 268 on a good batting track, besides scoring a quick-fire 20.
Shaw's stint in the UK is through an international sporting exchange scheme, founded by former England Universities wicket-keeper batsman and surgeon, Dr Samir Pathak, who has been bringing young, talented Indian cricketers to the UK for the past 3 years, the release said.
The scheme subsequently evolved into a charity termed "IOHSA" through which Pathak and the charity are to provide the financial and educational platform to successfully promote young aspiring cricketers.
