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.

New Delhi (PTI): The Delhi High Court on Thursday directed preservation of the assets of late Sunjay Kapur, ruling that all "suspicious circumstances" raised by the industrialist's children from his marriage with actor Karisma Kapoor have to be completely removed by his third wife, Priya Kapur, before the acceptance of his purported last will.

Justice Jyoti Singh passed the interim order on an application filed by Karisma Kapoor's children to restrain Priya Kapur from alienating their father's assets, reportedly worth Rs 30,000 crore.

The interim application was filed in a suit by the children, challenging their late father's purported will of his assets.

"Having heard and on examination of the material on record, I have the considered view that all legitimate suspicious circumstances raised by the plaintiffs will have to be completely removed by defendant number one (Priya Kapur) before the document is accepted as the last will," the judge said.

"Plaintiffs have made out a prima-facie case that the assets which are subject matter need to be protected, preserved, pending disposal of the suit," she added.

Justice Singh ordered that the equity shareholdings in the three Indian companies of the deceased cannot be changed and also restrained the disposal of his personal effects, including artwork.

The court said if the assets are not preserved and Priya Kapur ultimately fails to prove the validity and genuineness of the will, the deceased's children from his marriage with Karisma Kapoor -- his second wife -- and his mother Rani Kapur would be deprived of their legitimate shares.

"I have restrained from alienating, transferring, pledging, liquidating or in any other manner changing the equity shareholdings in the three Indian companies. I have restrained from withdrawing the PF amount. I have restrained from withdrawing monies from the three accounts except to the extent of discharging liabilities towards the children," the judge said.

The court clarified that it has not passed the order with respect to immovable foreign assets.

A detailed copy of the verdict is awaited.

Sunjay Kapur died on June 12, 2025, after collapsing during a polo match in England. He had reportedly suffered a sudden cardiac arrest.
