Overview

• Shaw reached his century off 122 balls and was out for 111, contributing roughly two-thirds of Maharashtra’s first-innings total as the side collapsed around him against Chhattisgarh in Chennai.
• He moved from Mumbai to Maharashtra after receiving a no‑objection certificate in June following omissions linked to fitness and discipline issues last season.
• After stumps he said he is “starting from scratch,” detailing recent work with a personal trainer and a dietitian and describing a day‑to‑day approach while limiting social media.
• In the third‑day chase of 185, Shaw fell for 1 in the second over, leaving Maharashtra 18 for 1 at lunch with 167 required.
• Context to his reset includes going unsold at the IPL 2025 auction and not playing for India since 2021, with observers noting that consistent runs and fitness will determine any revival.
