IPL 2024: 0% Performance, 100% Attitude – Riyan Parag Slammed for Dropping Travis Head Catch for a Duck in SRH vs RR

Riyan Parag has dropped a total of five catches in the IPL 2024 so far.

In a dramatic turn of events during the ongoing IPL 2024 clash between Rajasthan Royals and Sunrisers Hyderabad, Riyan Parag dropped a crucial catch off the very first ball of the match. With SRH opting to bat first, Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma opened the innings.

Trent Boult delivered the opening ball, and Head went for a loose drive, resulting in a high ball towards backward point. Parag, stationed there, seemed to have misjudged the trajectory, ultimately dropping the catch. The reprieve gifted Head a boundary, leaving Boult and the Royals frustrated.

Riyan Parag has developed a habit of dropping catches this IPL season, having missed a total of five chances. This has sparked outrage among fans, who took to social media to express their disappointment.

Whether this dropped catch significantly impacts the match remains to be seen, but it has certainly highlighted the need for improvement in Rajasthan Royals’ fielding, particularly from Riyan Parag.
