In contrast to “any other” batter, Virat Kohli is the only one said Riyan Parag has said he looks up to because he believes the former India captain to be personable and understandable.
After scoring a rousing 102 (68) against West Zone in the Deodhar Trophy, Parag made his remarks. During that match, East rallied back from 157/5 to 319/7 and went on to win by 157 runs.
He currently has 259 runs in the competition with an average of 86.33, which was fourth-best prior to the championship.
- According to Parag, Virat Kohli has always been the star. Despite the fact that our generation has many excellent hitters, I have no batting role models. Simply said, Virat Kohli and I have a lot in common, and we frequently communicate on the phone. He basically has a lot to say that I truly find interesting and can relate to. I appreciate it when he speaks because he helps me understand what he is saying.
In the IPL, which the 21-year-old hasn’t been able to win despite amassing tonnes of runs on the domestic circuit, Parag is frequently seen conversing with Kohli.
In terms of domestic runs, this year hasn’t been any different either. He hit a 131 against North Zone prior to the 102 versus West to help his team go from 57/5 to 337/8 and win by 88 runs.
How Riyan Parag’s bowling was aided by Ravichandran Ashwin
The kid gave his Rajasthan Royals (RR) teammate and renowned off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin credit for assisting him with minor details like knowing when to bowl which variation.
- Riyan Parag shared some fascinating information about how Ashwin helped him hone his carrom ball. Riyan Parag has now recorded two four-wicket hauls in the league.
He remembered, “I was chatting to him about the carrom ball even before the last game. “”I was complaining to him that the carrom ball wasn’t turning with the velocity or quantity I wanted. He then advised making a few adjustments to the hand position, including turning the palm towards me and releasing it towards the batsman. I could immediately tell a difference once he suggested this. Those small things have been of great use to me.
Today (August 3), the Deodhar Trophy final will include a match between East Zone and South Zone.
