India under-19 captain Prithvi Shaw is having a wonderful cricket World Cup in New Zealand. Having led his side to two convincing wins in the ongoing ICC U-19 World Cup, India's young batting sensation Prithvi Shaw enjoyed time off the field by getting clicked with a baby.

The official social media account of International Cricket Council (ICC) uploaded two photos of captain Shaw with a baby, captioned as "India U19s star Prithvi Shaw shaking hands and literally kissing babies as he gets an early taste of fame at #U19CWC!"

Impressed by his batting, former West Indies fast bowler Ian Bishop while commentating during India's game, said "that's Tendulkar" after Shaw launched into a front-foot drive.

Shaw has in recent times often drawn comparisons with the batting icon.

During the match between South Africa and West Indies, a family of spectators asked the India skipper to hold and pose with their baby.

Shaw, who has posted the photo on his Instagram account, seemed to be enjoying the well-earned rest after striking fifties in both of India's opening wins, but was happy to oblige.

India will play Zimbabwe next at Mount Maunganui in New Zealand on Friday.

India looks like the side to beat in the tournament and a confidence-boosting win against former champions Australia and demolition of Papua New Guinea has put them in a comfortable position and they can experiment a bit before the knockout stage.
