Riyan Parag, the talented Rajasthan Royals’ (RR) all-rounder, has been a topic of ridicule as he failed once again to perform for his team in their 9-wicket loss to Gujarat Titans (GT) in their last IPL 2023 encounter on Friday evening.
The Assamese cricketer scored just 4 off 6 six balls. It wasn’t just Riyan who had a poor outing. Apart from Sanju Samson none of the Rajasthan Royals (RR) could live up to the expectations. In fact, 8 out of 11 batters scored in single digits as RR were bundled out for 118. But the fans went after Riyan who came in as an impact player but left none.
He has failed to find his rhythm with the bat, having scored just 58 runs in six innings so far. He replaced Yashasvi Jaiswal, walking in at No. 6. It was a desperate call by the Royals after getting reduced to 63 for 4 in 8 overs. However, his knock came to a swift end as he was trapped in front by Rashid Khan.
Riyan’s another failure with the bat this season led to massive trolling on social media, and he came up with an emotional tweet.
“Waqt acha ho ya bura Guzar he jata hai! (Be it bad or good, time passes),” Riyan wrote on Twitter.
However, the fans didn’t show any mercy to him and he was heavily trolled on Twitter.
Here are some tweets:
