Mumbai-born cricket sensations Prithvi Shaw and Arjun Tendulkar were in high spirits as they celebrated the latter’s 24th birthday on Sunday. In a series of Instagram stories, Shaw jovially referred to Arjun as the “Birthday boy,” while sharing visuals of the duo cutting a cake.

The photos and video capturing the close bond between the two showcased Shaw affectionately feeding cake to the birthday boy and both posing gleefully side by side.



The friendship between Shaw and Arjun is no secret in the cricketing circles. Their friendship was further highlighted recently when Arjun took to Instagram, expressing his heartfelt wishes for a rapid recovery for Shaw.

Shaw had unfortunately sustained a knee injury during his stint with Northamptonshire in the One Day Cup in the past month. Tendulkar’s message read, “Stay strong buddy wish you a speedy recovery.”

On the cricket front, Shaw's performance in the One Day Cup 2023 has been nothing short of sensational. The young cricketing prodigy scored a staggering 429 runs in just four innings, with a particular highlight being a phenomenal 244 runs off 153 balls against Somerset. He also showed his consistency by registering an unbeaten 125 against Durham.

While Shaw's last appearance for the Indian national team was during the Sri Lanka tour in July 2021, he was also named in the T20I squad to face New Zealand earlier this year but didn’t feature in any matches.

Meanwhile, Arjun Tendulkar, stepping out of the giant shadow of his legendary father, Sachin Tendulkar, has been making strides in his cricketing career. 

He marked his debut in the Indian Premier League playing for Mumbai Indians (MI) in the 2023 season, taking three wickets in four appearances. Furthermore, Tendulkar’s brilliance was on display in the Deodhar Trophy, representing the South Zone, where he successfully bagged three wickets over two matches.
