Riyan Parag has been the best thing happening to Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2024 as the batter is performing well for his team and slammed his third half-century against Gujarat Titans on Wednesday. RR vs GT 2024 IPL match at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium was echoing with cheers of Riyal Parag’s name as the batter smashed some magnificent sixes to provide Rajasthan Royals with the required acceleration in the RR vs GT 2024 IPL game.
Sanju Samson-led Rajasthan Royals lost the toss and were put to bat first by Shubman Gill-led Gujarat Titans. Yashasvi Jaiswal and Jos Buttler began their team’s innings cautiously, with young Jaiswal displaying some passive aggression. Gujarat Titans pacer Umesh Yadav provided his team with the first breakthrough as he dismissed Yashasvi Jaiswal, whose disappointing form continues.
In a brilliant decision, Gujarat Titans skipper Shubman Gill roped in magical spinner Rashid Khan after the wicket, and the Afghan pacer delivered as he dismissed the centurion of the previous match Jos Buttler. Rajasthan Royals’ top order was collapsing when skipper Sanju Samson and Riyan Parag met on the crease.
Riyan Parag’s explosive innings
Riyan Parag couldn’t do much against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), so he decided to compensate on Wednesday as he punished Gujarat Titans bowlers left, right, and center. The batter slammed some explosive shots to throw Gujarat Titans camp in disarray while his skipper Sanju Samson held the innings tightly.
Gujarat Titans fielders are displaying below-average fielding on Wednesday as they drop multiple catches and misfields look very frequent at the ground of Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur.
With his explosive innings against GT, Riyal Parag is promoted to the second rank on the list of top run scorers in IPL 2024 and Rajasthan Royals batter is just below legend Virat Kohli in the race for the prestigious Orange Cap.
