IPL 2025: I Personally Rushed A Little Bit, Admits Riyan Parag After RR’s Defeat To KKR
Kolkata Knight Riders: After Rajasthan Royals fell to their second successive defeat in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 with an eight-wicket loss to defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders, skipper Riyan Parag admitted that he was personally rushed into his shot a little bit while being dismissed for 25 at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium here on Wednesday.
Parag, the local lad, miscued a loft and was caught by Quinton de Kock for 25 off Varun Chakaravarthy. His dismissal triggered a slide for RR, and they could make 151/9, the lowest total in IPL 2025 so far. In reply, Quinton de Kock made 97 not out as KKR completed the chase with 15 balls to spare.
“170 was going to be a really good score, that's what we were aiming for. I personally rushed a little bit, knowing the wicket here. Fell short by 20 runs. That was the plan, to get Quinny out early, but that didn't happen. So, we shifted to containing in the middle overs. He played really well, so kudos to him,” said Parag after the match ended.
