Rajkot : Opener Prithvi Shaw (75*) scored an unbeaten half-century on his Test debut as India went into lunch with 133 runs on the board for the loss of one wicket on Day 1 of the first Test against the Windies at the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Rajkot. Showing no signs of nerves in his first Test, 18-year-old Shaw looked in sublime touch, bringing up his fifty off just 57 deliveries, becoming the youngest player to score a half-century on debut for India.

After winning the toss India, India captain Virat Kohli opted to bat against the Windies in good batting conditions but the team got off to a bad start losing KL Rahul for a duck in the very first over. An incoming length ball from Shannon Gabriel trapped Rahul right in front of the stumps. Post Rahul's departure both Shaw and Cheteshwar Pujara played brilliantly, stitching an unbeaten 130-run partnership for the second wicket. Pujara (56*) brought up his 19th half-century during his stay at the centre. For Windies, it was a tough session as they gave away runs at over 5 runs per over. Shannon Gabriel was the lone wicket-taker for the Windies in the morning session.
