Priyansh Arya Breaks Record Of Scoring Most Runs By An Uncapped Indian In...

Last Updated: In 17 matches of IPL 2025 for Punjab Kings, Priyansh Arya scored 475 runs. He scored one century against CSK and two half-centuries. Punjab Kings signed Priyansh Arya for Rs 3.80 crore in the mega auction last year, and in his maiden IPL season, the 24-year-old left-handed batter from Delhi impressed everyone with his batting performances. He finished the IPL 2025 season with 475 runs in 17 matches. His tally of 475 runs helps him break the record of most runs in an IPL season by an uncapped Indian batter. Before Arya, the record was in the name of Devdutt Padikkal. In IPL 2020, Padikkal scored 473 runs for RCB. 475 – Priyansh Arya, 2025 473 – Devdutt Padikkal, 2020 439 – Shreyas Iyer, 2015 397 – Tilak Varma, 2022 391 – Rahul Tripathi, 2017 370 – Venkatesh Iyer, 2021 Arya scored one century and two fifties for Shreyas Iyer-led side in IPL 2025. In the IPL 2025 final for PBKS against RCB, currently underway at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, Arya opened the innings in the 191-run chase and scored 24 runs from 19 balls with the help of four fours. He added 43 runs in five overs with Prabhsimran Singh (26) for the first wicket before Josh Hazlewood brought an end to his innings. The overall record of scoring most runs in a debut IPL season by an uncapped batter is in the name of Shaun Marsh. The left-handed top-order batter from Australia played 11 matches for PBKS in 2008 and scored 616 runs. Yashasvi Jaiswal holds the record for scoring the most runs in an IPL season by an uncapped batter. The Mumbai-based batter played 14 matches for Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2023 and scored 628 runs. Priyansh's performance in IPL 2025 Arya made his IPL debut for PBKS against GT in Ahmedabad on March 25 and scored 47 runs from 23 balls. In PBKS' second league match against LSG in Lucknow, he got out for 8 runs from nine balls and was clean bowled for a golden duck by Jofra Archer in the PBKS-RR match on April 5 in Mullanpur. He, however, quickly bounced back from that setback and scored a 38-ball century against CSK on April 8. In PBKS' fifth league match, Arya scored 36 off 13 balls against SRH and followed it up with scores of 22 from 12 against KKR, 16 against RCB in Mullanpur and 22 in Bengaluru. In PBKS' last six league matches, the left-handed batter scored 69 against KKR, 23 vs CSK, 1 against LSG, 9 against RR, 6 against DC and 62 against the Mumbai Indians in Jaipur. In Qualifier 1, Arya made 7 runs against RCB, and in Qualifier 2, he made 20 against MI. Watch CNN-News18 here.

Cabinet clears Kurla land transfer terms for Dharavi project: 8.5-hectare land to be allocated for construction of rehabilitation tenements

In a move that paved the way for transfer of 8.5-hectare Dairy Development Department plot in Kurla to Dharavi Redevelopment Project, the Maharashtra Cabinet on Tuesday approved amendments to the terms and conditions of the land transfer agreement. The land, which houses the state-run but now defunct Mother Dairy unit, has thus been allocated for the construction of rehabilitation tenements for the ineligible Dharavi residents. The Cabinet, chaired by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, gave the green signal to align the land transfer agreement with the Housing and Urban Development Department's latest policy framework. This is aimed at facilitating smoother implementation of the Rs 20,000-crore DRP—considered one of the country's most ambitious urban renewal efforts. The 8.5-hectare ( 21 acres) Kurla plot was formally transferred through a government resolution issued on June 14, 2024. It will now be handed over to the Dharavi Redevelopment Project-Slum Rehabilitation Authority (DRP-SRA), which is functioning as the planning authority. The Adani Group-led Navbharat Mega Developers Private Limited (NMDPL), the private partner executing the DRP, recently approached the State Environment Impact Assessment Authority (SEIAA) seeking clearance for constructing rehabilitation tenements on the 21-acre Kurla plot, which houses a significant number of trees. According to officials, Dharavi's redevelopment entails the rehabilitation of approximately 8.5 lakh residents. While about 5 lakh eligible families will be accommodated within Dharavi's 620-acre project boundary, the remaining 3.5 lakh ineligible or displaced families are to be resettled on alternate land. The Kurla parcel is among five plots—together measuring 540 acres—earmarked for this purpose. These plots, located within and outside Mumbai, will be used to house ineligible residents on a rental basis. This is in addition to 118.4 acres within Dharavi reserved for commercial development and in-situ rehabilitation. State officials said the amendments approved by the Cabinet are critical for unlocking the Kurla plot and progressing with early-stage rehabilitation construction. The move is also aligned with the state's 'Housing for All' mission, and is expected to enable the development of not just housing but also civic infrastructure such as schools, hospitals, and commercial spaces in new rehabilitation zones.

But since then, the price of the yellow metal has again started to move northwards, which has dampened the demand,' said Surendra Mehta, national secretary, Tuesday, retail gold prices hovered around Rs 96,960 per 10 gm. With a 3% goods and services tax, the price of 10 gm of gold stood at Rs 99,868.'Mumbai, the nerve centre of the gold jewellery market in the country, has witnessed daily average retail sales of gold jewellery tumbling by 105 kg,' said Jain Kumar Jain, owner of Zaveri Bazaar-based Umedmal Tilakchand Zaveri, said, 'Customers are coming and enquiring about prices and are leaving without purchase. We have seen a 25% drop in demand.

'These geopolitical and trade-related uncertainties have overshadowed expectations that the US Federal Reserve may delay interest rate cuts until September. In the near term, gold's safe-haven appeal is likely to strengthen as investors seek stability. Looking ahead, the upcoming non-farm payrolls data on Friday will be a key catalyst for bullion price movements," he said.
