[Watch] Riyan Parag hits a stunning six out of the ground in Duleep Trophy

Riyan Parag, the young cricketer, showcased his talent by smashing a brilliant six off Vidwath Kaverappa during a counter-attacking innings in the Duleep Trophy match between India A and India D. The match took place at the Rural Development Trust Stadium in Anantapur on Thursday, September 12.

The moment of brilliance came in the 12th over of India A’s innings when Kaverappa delivered an overpitched ball. Parag, showing great technique and timing, confidently stepped forward and lofted the ball over long-off for a massive six. This shot not only added valuable runs to the scoreboard but also marked the first six of the match.

Parag entered the crease after India A lost their openers early in the game. He played a quickfire knock, scoring 37 runs off just 29 balls, including one six and five boundaries. However, his innings was cut short when he was caught by Devdutt Padikkal off the bowling of Arshdeep Singh.

The talented cricketer recently made his ODI debut during India’s tour of Sri Lanka, where he impressed with his all-round performance. Parag also made significant contributions with both bat and ball in the T20I series against Sri Lanka. In the previous Duleep Trophy match against India B, he scored 30 and 31 runs, showcasing his consistency.

Despite Parag’s efforts, India A found themselves in trouble against a strong bowling performance from India D. At the time of writing, India A were struggling at 93-5 in their first innings, with Kumar Kushagra and Shams Mulani at the crease. Kaverappa was the standout bowler for India D, picking up two crucial wickets.

India A had previously suffered a defeat against India B in their last game, with Mayank Agarwal leading the team in the absence of regular captain Shubman Gill.

Meanwhile, senior members of the Indian cricket team, apart from Sarfaraz Khan, have started their preparations for the upcoming Test series against Bangladesh. The two-match Test series is set to commence at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on September 19.

As the Duleep Trophy match unfolds, fans can stay updated with live scores and match updates. The competition promises to be intense, with both teams vying for supremacy.

Overall, Riyan Parag’s impressive performance stands out as a silver lining for India A in an otherwise challenging situation against India D. The young cricketer’s talent and potential continue to shine bright, offering hope for the future of Indian cricket.
