Riyan Parag: The Rising Star of Indian Cricket

From Under-19 Success to IPL Stardom

In the world of cricket, few players emerge as bright young stars as Riyan Parag. At just 16 years of age, he was already a world cup medalist, having played a significant role in India's successful Under-19 triumph.

Parag, a batting all-rounder from Assam, impressed as an Under-19 player during India's 2017 tour of England, alongside fellow young stars like Shubman Gill. His exceptional talent and versatility quickly caught the attention of IPL scouts, leading to his signing with the Rajasthan Royals.

In the IPL 2024 season, Parag emerged as a force to be reckoned with. He was the highest run scorer for Rajasthan Royals and the third highest on the overall run-scoring charts. Parag's impressive average of 1664 further underscored his exceptional batting skills.

However, the 2023 IPL season proved to be a more challenging one for Parag. Appearing in just seven matches, he struggled to find his rhythm, showcasing the ups and downs that come with being a rising star in the highly competitive world of cricket.
